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. 一头驴听到几只蚱蜢在鸣叫，觉得很羡慕；于是也想得到同样美妙的声音，就问蚱蜢吃什么东西过活，才能有这样优美的声音。蚱蜢说，“露水。”驴子听了，从此以后也只吃露水过活，不久就饿死了。 |
