The Dove and the Crow

: Aesop's Fables

A DOVE shut up in a cage was boasting of the large number of

young ones which she had hatched. A Crow hearing her, said: "My

good friend, cease from this unseasonable boasting. The larger

the number of your family, the greater your cause of sorrow, in

seeing them shut up in this prison-house."
