Stand by a Stump Waiting for More Sudden Hares <    A farmer of the State of Song was ploughing in the fields when a hare came dashing past and ran into a tree stump in its way. It broke its neck and fell down dead．Seeing this, the farmer put aside his plough and went up to stand by the stump, hoping to get some more hares this way. Naturally, no more hares came and for this the farmer became a laughing stock all over the state.
