<p>A Goatherd was one day gathering his flock to return to the
fold, when one of his goats strayed and refused to join the rest.
He tried for a long time to get her to return by calling and
whistling to her, but the Goat took no notice of him at all; so at
last he threw a stone at her and broke one of her horns. In dismay,
he begged her not to tell his master: but she replied, "You silly
fellow, my horn would cry aloud even if I held my tongue."</p>
<p class="adage">It's no use trying to hide what can't be
hidden.</p>
