I was riding along the road, when I heard some one 
shouting behind me. It was a young shepherd. He 
was running across a field, and pointing at something. 
I looked, and saw two wolves running across the 
field. One was full grown ; the other was a cub. The 
cub had on his back a lamb which had just been killed, 
and he had the leg in his mouth. 
The old wolf was running behind. 
As soon as I saw the wolves, I joined the shepherd, 
and we started in pursuit, setting up a shout. 
When they heard our shout, some peasants started 
out also in pursuit, with their dogs. 
.As soon as the old wolf caught sight of the dogs 
and the men, he ran to the young one, snatched the lamb 
from him, jerked it over his own back, and both wolves 
increased their pace and were soon lost from view. 
Then the lad began to relate how it had happened. 
The big wolf had sprung out from the ravine, seized the 
lamb, killed it, and carried it off. The cub came to 
meet him, and threw himself on the lamb. The old 
wolf allowed the young wolf to carry the lamb, but kept 
running a short distance behind. 
But as soon as there was danger, the old one ceased 
giving the lesson, and seized the lamb for himself.
