The Trees and the Axe
A MAN came into a forest and asked the Trees to provide him a
handle for his axe. The Trees consented to his request and gave
him a young ash-tree. No sooner had the man fitted a new handle
to his axe from it, than he began to use it and quickly felled
with his strokes the noblest giants of the forest. An old oak,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],
lamenting when too late the destruction of his companions,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], said
to a neighboring cedar, "The first step has lost us all. If we
had not given up the rights of the ash, we might yet have
retained our own privileges and have stood for ages."
The Crab and the Fox
A CRAB, forsaking the seashore, chose a neighboring green
meadow as its feeding ground. A Fox came across him, and being
very hungry ate him up. Just as he was on the point of being eaten,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],
the Crab said, "I well deserve my fate, for what business had I
on the land, when by my nature and habits I am only adapted for
the sea?'
Contentment with our lot is an element of happiness.
