Cervus ad fontem

Olim pulcher cervus vidit faciem suam in fonte aquarum et dixit: "quam formosa est species cornuum meorum! Crura autem mea sunt gracilia." At subito voces venatorum et latratus canum terrent cervum, qui petit salutem in proxima silva. Pro dolore, rami arborum tenent cervum cornibus implicatum; mox adveniunt canes et lacerant cervum brevibus morsibus. Cervus moriens dixit: "quam stultus fui! Crura mea erant utilia. Cornua mea fuerunt causa perniciei mea!" Fabula docet sultos homines saepe laudare inutilia et vituperare utilia.

The deer at the spring

Once upon a time a beautiful deer saw his face in a spring and said: “how beautiful is the sight of my horns. But my legs are so thin!”, suddenly the voices of hunters and the barking of dogs terrified the deer, who sought to escape in the nearby forest. Because of pain, the branches of the trees keeps the deer stuck by his horns; soon the dogs come and tore apart the deer with fast bites.?Dying the deer said: “how stupid was I. My legs were useful, but my horns were the cause of my ruin”. The story teaches that foolish people often praise useless things and belittle useful ones.
