A rabbit travelling leisurely along the highway was seen, at some
distance, by a duck, who had just come out of the water.
"Well, I declare!" said she, "if I could not walk without limping in
that ridiculous way, I'd stay at home. Why, he's a spectacle!"
"Did you ever see such an ungainly beast as that duck!" said the
rabbit to himself. "If I waddled like that I should go out only at
night."
MORAL, BY A KANGAROO.--People who are ungraceful of gait are always
intolerant of mind.
