The Goat and the Goatherd_英语寓言故事

a goatherd had sought to bring back a stray goat to his flock.
he whistled and sounded his horn in vain; the straggler paid no
attention to the summons.
at last the goatherd threw a stone,
and breaking its horn, begged the goat not to tell his master.
the goat replied, "why, you silly fellow, the horn will speak
though i be silent."
