Fable
The Farmer and The Stork
A Stork of a very simple and trusting nature
had been asked by a gay party of Cranes to visit a field that had been newly
planted. But the party ended dismally with all the birds entangled in the
meshes of the Farmer's net.
The
Stork begged the Farmer to spare him.
"Please
let me go," he pleaded. "I belong to the Stork family who you know
are honest and birds of good character. Besides, I did not know the Cranes were
going to steal."
"You
may be a very good bird," answered the Farmer, "but I caught you with
the thieving Cranes and you will have to share the same punishment with
them."
Moral
- You are judged by the company you keep.
