a lion, fatigued by the heat of a summer''s day, fell fast asleep in his den. a mouse ran over his mane and ears and woke him from his slumbers. he rose up and shook himself in great wrath, and searched every corner of his den to find the mouse. a fox seeing him said: "a fine lion you are, to be frightened of a mouse." "''tis not the mouse i fear, " said the lion; "i resent his familiarity and ill-breeding."

little liberties are great offenses.

酷热难耐的夏天，狮子正在自己的洞里睡大觉。【二品阁】一只不识趣的老鼠偏偏这时爬到他脸上，把他惊醒了。暴跳如雷的狮子，发狂地在洞里四处寻找这只可恶的老鼠。狐狸看见后就嘲讽狮子:“这么英勇的狮子竟然害怕起老鼠来了！”狮子回答说:“我害怕的并不是老鼠，而是恨他的放肆和无礼！”

一个人的小小的自由，有时候也是对别人的冒犯。
