| 169. The Woman And Her Hen A Woman possessed a Hen that gave her an egg every day. She often thought with herself how she might obtain two eggs daily instead of one, and at last, to gain her purpose, determined to give the Hen a double allowance of barley. From that day the Hen be came fat and sleek, and never once laid another egg. Covetousness overreacheth itself. | 169. 妇人和她的母鸡 一位妇人有一只母鸡，这只母鸡每天帮她生一个鸡蛋。 妇人常常在盘算着，她用什么方法才能每天由一个鸡蛋而变成得到两个鸡蛋呢？最后，她想出了一个方法，决定每天给那母鸡吃双倍的大麦。 但是从那一天起，母鸡变得肥胖臃肿，却不再生蛋了。 贪婪总是自己吃亏。 |
