74. The Vine And The Goat

A Vine was luxuriant in the time of vint
age with leaves and grapes. A Goat, passing by, nibbled its young tendrils and its leaves. The Vine addressed him, and said: "Why do you thus injure me without a cause, and crop my leaves? Is there no
young grass left? But I shall not have to wait long for my just revenge; for if you now should crop my leaves, and cut me down to my foot, I shall provide the wine to pour over you when you are led as a victim to the sacrifice.
74. 葡萄树和山羊
一株葡萄树,在葡萄的收获期中,果叶非常茂盛。 一只山羊打从那里经过,吃他的嫩卷须和叶子,。 葡萄树对他说:「你为什么无故地伤害我和吃我的叶子呢? 难道你找不到嫩草吗? 不过不久之后,我也会有好的报复方法,如果你现在吃我的叶子,弄断我的根部,那么当你被牵去做祭品的时候,我将提供葡萄酒来浇在你身上了。」
