a very skillful bowman went to the mountains in search of game but all the beasts of the forest fled at his approach
the lion alone challenged him to combat
the bowman immediately shot out an arrow and said to the lion
i send thee my messenger that from him thou mayest learn what i myself shall be when i assail thee

you counsel me in vain
for if he sends so fearful a messenger how shall i abide the attack of the man himself
