The Kite
A KITE, which had been allowed to soar to the clouds, called out from on high to a Butterfly down below in the valley,
” I can assure you that I can scarcely make you out. Confess now that you feel envious when you watch my so lofty flight.”
” Envious ? No, indeed ! You have no business to think so much of yourself You fly high, it is true ; but you are always tied by a string. Such a life, my friend, is very far removed from happiness. But I, though in truth but little exalted, fly wherever I wish. I should not like all my life long to have to conduce to some one else’s foolish amusement.”
