A Pig found his way into a meadow where a flock of Sheep were grazing. The shepherd caught him, and was proceeding to carry him off to the butcher's when he set up a loud squealing and struggled to get free. The Sheep rebuked him for making such a to-do, and said to him, “The shepherd catches us regularly and drags us off just like that, and we don't make any fuss.” “No, I dare say not,” replied the Pig, “but my case and yours are altogether different: he only wants you for wool, but he wants me for bacon.”
一只猪想办法溜进了一片草场，草场中有一群羊在吃草。牧羊人抓到了猪，要把它送去给屠夫。猪大呼小叫，奋力挣扎，想要逃生。他搞出这么大动静来，羊儿们十分不满，对他说：“牧羊人经常这么抓住我们拖拉着走，我们可从来不会大惊小怪。”“是啊，我敢说你们不会，”猪回答说，“但是我和你们不一样，他只要你们的毛，而却要我的肉啊。”
