A FABLE

 The Rabbit was boasting of his speed before the other animals. "I have never been beaten," said he, "I challenge any one here to race with me." The Turtle said quietly, "I accept your challenge." "That is a good joke," said the Rabbit; "I could dance round you all the way." "Keep your boasting till you've won," answered the Turtle. "Shall we race?"

 So a race course was fixed and a start was made. The Rabbit darted almost out of sight at once, but soon stopped and, to show his contempt for the Turtle, lay down to take a nap. The Turtle plodded on and plodded on, and when the Rabbit awoke from his nap, he saw the Turtle near the finish line. He could not run up in time to save the race. Then said the Turtle: Slow and steady wins the race.
