Part of his flock to a neighbouring fair, leaving his dog to watch the remain der, during that day and the next night, expecting to revisit them the following morning. Unhappily, how ever, when at the fair, he forgot both his dog and his sheep, and did not return home till the morning of the third day. His first inquiry was, whether his dog had been seen? The answer was, No. Then he must be dead, replied the shepherd in a tone of anguish, for I know he was too faithful to desert his charge. He instantly repaired to the heath. The dog had sufficient strength remaining to crawl to his master's feet, and express his joy at his return, and almost immediately after expired. Thus, the careless ness of the master, brought loss on himself, and suffer ing and death on his faithful servant.
