少儿寓言故事：勇敢的小裁缝(双语)

　　Are you not wounded? asked the horsemen.

　　Everything is all right, answered the tailor. They did not so much as bend one of my hairs.

　　Not wanting to believe him, the horesemen rode into the woods. There they found the giants swimming in their own blood, and all around lay the uprooted trees.

　　The little tailor asked the king for the promised reward, but the latter regretted the promise, and once again he began to think of a way to get the hero off his neck. Before you receive my daughter and half the kingdom, he said, you must fulfill another heroic deed. In the woods there is a unicorn that is causing much damage. First you must capture it.

　　I am even less afraid of a unicorn than I was of two giants. Seven with one blow, that is my thing.

　　Taking a rope and an ax, he went into the woods. Once again he told those who went with him to wait behind. He did not have to look very long. The unicorn soon appeared, leaping toward the tailor as if it wanted to spear him at once.

　　Gently, gently, said the tailor. Not so fast. He stopped, waited until the animal was very near, then jumped agilely behind a tree. The unicorn ran with all its might into the tree, sticking its horn so tightly into the trunk that it did not have enough strength to pull it out again, and thus it was captured.

　　Now I have the little bird, said the tailor, coming out from behind the tree. First he tied the rope around the unicorns neck, then he cut the horn out of the tree with the ax. When everything was ready, he led the animal away and brought it to the king.
