In Chapter X Robinson describes how he managed to tame an old fierce goat - As to the old one, I knew not what to do with him; he was so fierce I durst not go into the pit to him; that is to say, to bring him away alive, which was what I wanted. I could have killed him, but that was not my business, nor would it answer my end; so I even let him out, and he ran away as if he had been frightened out of his wits. But I did not then know what I afterwards learned, that hunger will tame a lion. If I had let him stay three or four days without food, and then have carried him some water to drink and then a little corn, he would have been as tame as one of the kids - interesting to learn how Robinson is able to make his own fortune. This is a classic tale that you can't afford to miss.","brand":"Country House Library","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55694884405627,"sku":"10539496","price":48.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2458\/8207\/files\/orig_489673_jpg.jpg?v=1755786222","url":"https:\/\/countryhouselibrary.co.uk\/products\/daniel-defoes-life-and-adventures-of-robinson-crusoe-1855-routledge-1","provider":"Country House Library ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
