Fables and Proverbs Fable: a story that teaches a lesson A short story with a moral, especially one in which the characters are animals (moral – valuable lesson in behavior from a story or event) Proverb: a short well-known saying that often offers advice

The Ant and the Dove AN ANT went to the bank of a river to quench its thirst, and being carried away by the rush of the stream, was on the point of drowning. A Dove sitting on a tree overhanging the water plucked a leaf and let it fall into the stream close to her. The Ant climbed onto it and floated in safety to the bank. Shortly afterwards a bird catcher came and stood under the tree, and laid his lime-twigs for the Dove, which sat in the branches. The Ant, perceiving his design, stung him in the foot. In pain the bird catcher threw down the twigs, and the noise made the Dove fly away. One good deed deserves another

The Bald Man and the Fly A FLY bit the bare head of a Bald Man who, endeavoring to destroy it, gave himself a heavy slap. Escaping, the Fly said mockingly, "You who have wished to revenge, even with death, the Bite of a tiny insect, see what you have done to yourself to add insult to injury? [Revenge will hurt the avenger]
