Disturbed,he ordered his driver to stop and he got out to investigate.
他覺得有點困擾,就吩咐司機停車。接著他下車查探。
Heasked one man Why are you eating grass?
他問其中一人,“為何你們在吃草?”
Wedon t have any money for food, the poor man replied We have to eat grass.
那人答,“我們沒有錢買食物,所以我們要吃草。”
Well,then, you can come with me to my house and I ll feed you , the lawyer said.
“那麼,你可以來我家,我給你吃的。”律師說。
Butsir, I have a wife and two children with me. They are over there, under thattree .
“可是我還有妻子及兩個孩子,他們都在那邊的樹下。”
Bringthem along, the lawyer replied.
“帶他們一起來吧。”律師說道。
Turningto the other poor man he stated, You come with us also.

Thesecond man, in a pitiful voice then said, But sir, I also have a wife and SIXchildren with me!
那人說,“可是我也有妻子及六個孩子啊。”

On ceunderway, one of the poor fellows turned to the lawyer and said, Sir, you aretoo kind. Thank you for taking all of us with you.
