The Sorcerer and the Sheep

The sheep had dreamt every night, and counted his brethren jumping over the moon. But, he grew bored of this, so prayed to Jehovah for more exciting dreams. Thus, in that moment, a sorcerer showed up, and said, "I can give you more exciting dreams." To which, the sheep assented, but within a second guess, said to LORD Jehovah, "I do not want this sorcerer's dreams. I want, rather, for you to give me my dreams. For, if they come from a sorcerer, they shall do me great harm." Yet, the sorcerer cast a spell upon the sheep even so, and the sheep suffered under his dreams. At last, the sheep said, "LORD, Jehovah, make these dreams go away." To which the LORD did, when the Sheep asked for forgiveness, and admitted he ought never have approached a sorcerer in anything or anywise.
