The Ass and the Grasshopper
AN ASS having heard some Grasshoppers
chirping, was highly enchanted; and, desiring
to possess the same charms of melody,
demanded what sort of food they lived on to
give them such beautiful voices. They
replied, "The dew." The Ass resolved that he
would live only upon dew, and in a short
time died of hunger.
