THE LION'S SHARE

Aesop for Children (1919)
http://mythfolklore.net/aesopica/milowinter/139.htm

A long time ago, the Lion, the Fox, the Jackal, and
the Wolf agreed to go hunting together,
sharing with each other whatever they found.

One day the Wolf ran down a Stag and

immediately called his comrades to divide the
spoil.

Without being asked, the Lion placed himself at the

head of the feast to do the carving, and, with
a great show of fairness, began to count the
guests.

"One," he said, counting on his claws, "that is

myself the Lion. Two, that's the Wolf, three, is the
Jackal, and the Fox makes four."
He then very carefully divided the Stag into four equal parts. Illustrations by Milo Winter (1886-1956)

"I am King Lion," he said, when he had finished, "so of course I get the first
part. This next part falls to me because I am the strongest; and this is mine
because I am the bravest."

He now began to glare at the others very savagely. "If any of you have any
claim to the part that is left," he growled, stretching his claws menacingly,
"now is the time to speak up."

Might makes right.
