Within the memory of the youngest child there was a family of rabbits who lived behind a pack of wolves.
The wolves announced that they did not like the way the rabbits were living.
The wolves were crazy about the way they themselves were living,because it was the only way to live.
One night several wolves were killed in an earthquake and this was blamed on the rabbits,for it is well known that rabbits pound on the ground with their hind legs and cause earthquakes.
On another night one of the wolves was killed by a bolt of lightning and this was also named on the rabbits,for it is well known that lettuce-eaters cause lightning.
The wolves threatened to civilize the rabbits if they didn't behave.
The rabbits decided to move away to a desert island.
But the animals,who lived at a great distance,shamed them,saying,
You must stay where you are and be brave.
