The Stream A mountain stream, forgetting that it owed its water to the rain and little brooks, decided to swell until it became as big as a river. So it began to dash itself violently against its banks, noisily tearing away soil and stones in order to widen its bed. But when the rains stopped, the waters shrank. The poor stream found itself caught among the stones it had torn from its banks, and was forced with much labor to hew itself a new path down into the valley. Moral: He who wants too much gets nothing. His Other Occupations Wrote many short fables Some are still told in Tuscany Fables
