The Crane And The Stork

---

A peasant put out his nets to catch the Cranes for tramping down his field. In the nets were caught the Cranes, and with them one Stork.

The Stork said to the peasant:

“Let me go! I am not a Crane, but a Stork; we are most honoured birds; I live on your father’s house. You can see by my feathers that I am not a Crane.”

The peasant said:

“With the Cranes I have caught you, and with them will I kill you.”
