The knight and his steed - Aesop's fables

You have been faithful and brave, but now you will rest for a while, ”said a gentleman to his steed.

At that time, he succeeded in passing a cart that was interested in the noble animal.

"I need him to pull my wagon and I will pay him a good price," the man offered.

Made the deal, the beautiful animal was subjected to hard work, little food and incessant whip.

New war breaks out, the knight recovers the faithful animal, combs it, gives it good food and jogs towards combat.

In the race horse and knight succumb. Before the steed dies, he says to his master:

-You have repaired your fault very late. Remember that I was brisk sorrel. Today you have turned me into an ass.

Correct with opportunity, and avoid more evil.
