9. The Traveller And His Dog

A Traveller, about to set out on
his journey, saw his Dog stand at the door stretching himself. He asked him sharply: "What do you stand gaping there for? Everything is ready but you; so come with me instantly." The Dog, wagging his ta
il, replied: "O, master! I am quite ready; it is you for whom I am waiting."

The loiterer often imputes delay to his more active friend.
9. 旅人和他的狗
一个旅人预备出发,看见他的狗站在门口打呵欠。 他就厉声地问狗:「你为什么站在那里打呵欠? 所有事情已经准备就绪,就只等你了,赶快跟我走!」 狗摇尾回答说:「啊!主人! 我早预备好在等候你呢。」
行动缓慢的人,常把他们的过失归咎到比他更敏捷的朋友身上。
