英文版寓言故事2The impostor
A certain man fell ill, and, being in a very bad way, he made a vow that he would sacrifice a hundred oxen to the gods if they would grant him a return to health. Wishing to see how he would keep his vow, they caused him to recover in a shout time. Now he hadn't an ox in the world, so he made a hundred little oxen out of tallow and offered them up on an altar, at the same time saying, "Ye gods, I call you to witness that I have discharged my vow." The gods determined to be even with him, so they sent him a dream, in which he was bidden to go to the seashore and fetch a hundred crowns which he was to find there. Hastening in great excitement to the shore, he fell in with a band of robbers, who seized him and carried him off to sell as a slave: and when they sold him a hundred crowns was the sum he fetched.
Do not promise more than you can perform.
有個人狀況非常嚴重，他向衆神發誓，如果能恢復健康，他一定會供奉一百頭牛給衆神。衆神想要看看他是否能遵守諾言，很快便讓他痊癒了。他其實根本沒有一百頭牛，於是，就用酥油做成了一百頭小牛，放到供臺上供奉給衆神，同時嘴裏還說着：“衆神靈，我請你們來見證，我已經還清了自己許下的願。”衆神決定要報復他，便帶他到一個夢境，在夢裏，他被命令到海邊去，在哪裏他將找到一百個銀元。他帶着激動的心情趕忙跑到海邊，可是卻遇上了一羣強盜，強盜抓住他並將他賣了去當奴隸，而賣他所得的錢正好是一百個銀元，也就是他要取的總數目。
不要許下力所不能及的願望。
英文版寓言故事3The lion, the fox and the ass
A lion, a fox, and an ass went out hunting together, They had soon taken a large booty, which the Lion requested the Ass to divide between them. The Ass divided it all into three equal parts, and modestly begged the others to take their choice, at which the lion, bursting with fury, sprang upon the ass and tore him to pieces. Then glaring at the fox, he hade him make a fresh division. The fox gathered almost the whole in one great heap for the lion's share, leaving only the smallest possible morsel for himself. "My dear friend," said the lion, "how did you get the knack of it so well?" The Fox replied, "Me? Oh, I took a lesson from the ass."
Happy is he who learns from the misfortunes of others.
