Three hundred Aesop’s fables, Literally Translated From the Greek, sentence 14

Thus the superiority of the counsellor, which often renders counsel unpalatable, is kept out of view, and the lesson comes with the greater acceptance when the reader is led, unconsciously to himself, to have his sympathies enlisted in behalf of what is pure, honourable, and praiseworthy, and to have his indignation excited against what is low, ignoble, and unworthy.

Who acts: renders, lesson, sympathies · What happens: counsel, keep out, come, lead, have, enlist · To what, where: counsellor, superiority, view, reader, behalf, indignation
