The Bull and the Calf
A BULL was striving with all his might to squeeze himself through
a narrow passage which led to his stall. A young Calf came up,
and offered to go before and show him the way by which he could
manage to pass. "Save yourself the trouble," said the Bull; "I
knew that way long before you were born."
The Stag,
hotsale marlboro cigarettes, the Wolf, and the Sheep
A STAG asked a Sheep to lend him a measure of wheat,
monster headphones, and said
that the Wolf would be his surety. The Sheep, fearing some fraud
was intended, excused herself, saying, "The Wolf is accustomed
to seize what he wants and to run off; and you, too, can quickly
outstrip me in your rapid flight. How then shall I be able to find
you, when the day of payment comes?'
Two blacks do not make one white.
The Peacock and the Crane
A PEACOCK spreading its gorgeous tail mocked a Crane that
passed by, ridiculing the ashen hue of its plumage and saying, "I
am robed, like a king, in gold and purple and all the colors of the
rainbow; while you have not a bit of color on your wings."
"True," replied the Crane; "but I soar to the heights of heaven
and lift up my voice to the stars,
vibrator, while you walk below, like a
cock, among the birds of the dunghill."
Fine feathers don't make fine birds.
