Chapter 53 The Sick Stag（病鹿）

A SICK STAG lay down in a quiet corner of its pasture-ground. His companions came in great numbers to inquire after his health, and each one helped himself to a share of the food which had been placed for his use; —
一只生病的雄鹿躺在牧场的一角。众多同伴前来询问他的健康状况，每个人都帮自己拿走了为他准备的食物份额； —

so that he died, not from his sickness, but from the failure of the means of living.
导致他死去，不是因为疾病，而是因为生计无法为继。

Evil companions bring more hurt than profit.
邪恶的伙伴带来的伤害比利益还多。
