Two Bulls lived in the same herd, and each aspiring to be the leader and master, they finally engaged in a fierce battle.

What is it to you that the Bulls fight for supremacy?" "Do you not see," said the old Frog, "that one must defeat the other, and that the defeated Bull, being driven from the field, will be forced to stay in the marshes, and will thus trample us to death?"
