Two men were
once walking along a forest path, talking of courage and loyalty. The bigger
one, who had a gun, was boasting of his own bravery and fidelity, when suddenly
a large bear came from behind a rock close in front of them, and stood in their
way growling angrily. The boaster fled to the nearest tree, dropped his gun,
and climbed to a safe place without thinking of his poor friend. The latter
flung himself upon his face as though dead. The bear smelt his body, turned him
over, licked his face, and supposing him to be dead, went on its way leaving
him unhurt.

who owed his life to his own presence of mind and not to the boasted bravery
and fidelity of his companion, replied, “why, he said, ‘put not your trust
in braggarts,’ and I shall take his advice.”
