  Fisherman. Aha! I have you at last, little fish. Little Fish. O Mr. Fisherman, please put me back into the water. Fisherman. Put you back? No, I will not! Little Fish. I beg you, put me back. I am so little. Fisherman. It has taken me a long time to catch you. Put you back, indeed! I think not. Little Fish. But I am so little. Put me back and wait until I have grown to be a large fish. Then I will make you a very good meal. Fisherman. [Thoughtfully.] True, my little fish, true. But where shall I find you when you have grown larger? —African Fable. |
