The Blind Man and the Whelp

A BLIND MAN was accustomed to distinguishing different animals by

touching them with his hands. The whelp of a Wolf was brought him, with

a request that he would feel it, and say what it was. He felt it, and

being in doubt, said: “I do not quite know whether it is the cub of a

Fox, or the whelp of a Wolf, but this I know full well. It would not be

safe to admit him to the sheepfold.”

Evil tendencies are shown in early life.
