[6] THE GOAT.
The Goat is a useful animal when tamed, and it is very cruel for little boys to teaze them. Their milk is very wholesome, though not as good as that of the cow. “The high hills are a refuge for the wild goats.” When Saul persecuted David, he was forced to hide among the rocks where the goats were found. Read 1 Samuel, xxiv. 2.
