In this final installment of Aesop's fables, we present "The Wolf and the Lamb," a timeless tale about power, false accusations, and the arbitrary nature of tyranny. The story culminates with the profound dying words of the lamb: "Any excuse will serve a tyrant."
• A wolf spots a lamb drinking from a spring downstream and decides to make it his supper
• The wolf falsely accuses the lamb of muddying his drinking water
• When the lamb points out this is impossible since water flows downstream, the wolf claims the lamb insulted him a year ago
• The lamb explains this couldn't be true as it's only six months old
• Undeterred, the wolf declares "If it was not you, it was your father" before attacking
• Before dying, the lamb delivers the moral: "Any excuse will serve a tyrant"
• This is the 14th and final Aesop's fable in our series
