There was once a blind man who had so fine a sense of touch that, when any animal was put into his hands, he could tell what it was merely by the feel of it. One day the cub1 of a wolf was put into his hands, and he was asked what it was. He felt it for some time, and then said, "Indeed, I am not sure whether it is a wolf's cub or a fox's: but this I know -- it would never do to trust it in a sheepfold."
Evil tendencies are early shown.
从前，有一个人眼睛虽然瞎了，可是他精于嗅觉，只要用手摸一摸，凭借着触感就便能说出这是什么动物。有一天，一只小狼崽被送到他的手中，请他告知这是什么东西。他用手摸了一会儿，然后说：“我不太确定，这到底是一只小狼崽，还是一只狐狸的幼崽，但是有一点我十分确定，千万别让它进羊圈。”
恶劣的本性从小便知。
