271. The Hen And The Swallow A Hen finding the eggs of a viper, and carefully keeping them warm, nourished them into life. A Swallow observing what she had done, said, "You silly creature! Why have you hatched these vipers, which, when they shall have grown, will inflictinjury on all, beginning wi th yourself?" | 271. 母鸡和燕子 一只母鸡找到一条毒蛇的卵,便将它们仔细地保温着,尽力保护维持它们的生命力。 一只燕子看见它所做的事情,便说:「你这傻瓜!你为什么孵出这些毒蛇来呀?它们长大之后,便会加害所有的东西,而且还拿你先开刀呢。」 |
