The Oxen and the Axle-Trees panel 1

A HEAVY WAGON was being dragged along a country lane by a team of Oxen.

The Oxen and the Axle-Trees panel 3

The Axle-trees groaned and creaked terribly; whereupon the Oxen, turning round, thus addressed the wheels: “Hullo there! why do you make so much noise? We bear all the labor, and we, not you, ought to cry out.”

The Oxen and the Axle-Trees panel 5

Those who suffer most cry out the least.

Aesops Fables

Aesops Fables are a collection of short stories that each contain a moral or lesson. These fables (such as 'The Boy who Cried Wolf') are known across the world. Aesop was a Greek slave who lived during the 5th century BC and either created or popularised existing fables, so their wisdom could be enjoyed by future generations.
