I. ÆSOP'S FABLES
THE ASS AND THE HORSE

Оглавление

A man had an Ass and a Horse. They were walking on the road; the Ass said to the Horse:

"It is heavy for me. – I shall not be able to carry it all; take at least a part of my load."

The Horse paid no attention to him. The Ass fell down from overstraining himself, and died. When the master transferred the Ass's load on the Horse, and added the Ass's hide, the Horse began to complain:

"Oh, woe to me, poor one, woe to me, unfortunate Horse! I did not want to help him even a little, and now I have to carry everything, and his hide, too."
