As he was wandering about there he came upon aLion lying down moaning and groaning. At first he turned to flee,but finding that the Lion did not pursue him, he turned back andwent up to him. As he came near, the Lion put out his paw, whichwas all swollen and bleeding, and Androcles found that a hugethorn had got into it, and was causing all the pain. He pulledout the thorn and bound up the paw of the Lion, who was soon ableto rise and lick the hand of Androcles like a dog. Then the Liontook Androcles to his cave, and every day used to bring him meatfrom which to live. But shortly afterwards both Androcles and theLion were captured, and the slave was sentenced to be thrown tothe Lion, after the latter had been kept without food for severaldays. The Emperor and all his Court came to see the spectacle,and Androcles was led out into the middle of the arena. Soon theLion was let loose from his den, and rushed bounding and roaringtowards his victim. But as soon as he came near to Androcles herecognised his friend, and fawned upon him, and licked his handslike a friendly dog. The Emperor, surprised at this, summonedAndrocles to him, who told him the whole story. Whereupon theslave was pardoned and freed, and the Lion let loose to his nativeforest.Gratitude is the sign of noble souls.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1496</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We have formed a legal defense team that includes prominent American, European, Asian and Arab lawyers who were chosen on ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28222]]></link><description><![CDATA[We have formed a legal defense team that includes prominent American, European, Asian and Arab lawyers who were chosen on the basis of competence and merit to put up a strong defense.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28222</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The work of art may have a moral effect, but to demand moral purpose from the artist is to make ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3150]]></link><description><![CDATA[The work of art may have a moral effect, but to demand moral purpose from the artist is to make him ruin his work]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3150</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You're in a much better position to talk with people when they approachyou than when you approach them. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21176]]></link><description><![CDATA[You're in a much better position to talk with people when they approachyou than when you approach them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21176</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The eyes are more exact witnesses than the ears. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4435]]></link><description><![CDATA[The eyes are more exact witnesses than the ears.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4435</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The ugliest of trades have their moments of pleasure.
