The Ass and the Grasshoppers
The
Ass and the Grasshoppers
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 only live upon dew, and in a short time died of hunger.
