a lion, greatly desiring to capture a bull, and yet afraid to attack hie hopany." the lion said this in the hope that, as the bull was in the act of reclining to eat, he might attack him to advantage, and make his meal on him. the bull, on approaching the lion''s den, saw the huge spits and giant caldrons, and no sign whatever of the sheep, and, without saying a word, quietly took his departure. the lion inquired why he went off so abruptly without a word of salutation to his host, who had not given him any cause for offense. "i have reasons enough, " said the bull. "i see no indication whatever of your having slaughtered a sheep, while i do see very plainly every preparation for your dining on a bull."

长时间以来，狮子一直想抓一头公牛，但是又担心遭遇公牛的抵抗，后来他终于想到一条计策。【【快穿】被病娇小狼狗们盯上了怎么破】于是，他找到公牛对他说:“我抓到一只绵羊，并计划把他作为祭品上供，我诚心诚意地邀请你和我一起来分享这份大餐。请务必赏脸！”狮子一边非常“热情”地邀请公牛，一边在心里筹划如何能不费力地把公牛抓住。

听了狮子的话，公牛一时忍不住美食的诱惑，就答应了狮子的邀请。走近狮子的住处，公牛看到很多烤肉的工具，唯独没有绵羊的影子。公牛立即明白了狮子的用意，没有搭理狮子，掉头就走。狮子责备公牛不讲信用，问他，为什么对主人不打招呼就走，并没有谁唐突你啊？公牛回答说:“我有充足的理由这么做，因为我发现你打算当作祭品上供的不是绵羊而是公牛。”

当一个人想要背叛我们时，就得不到我们的信任。
