伊索寓言：作客的狗
The Dog and the Cook
A RICH MAN gave a great feast, to which he invited many friends and acquaintances. His Dog availed himself of the occasion to invite a stranger Dog, a friend of his, saying, "My master gives a feast, and there is always much food remaining; come and sup with me tonight." The Dog thus invited went at the hour appointed, and seeing the preparations for so grand an entertainment, said in the joy of his heart, "How glad I am that I came! I do not often get such a chance as this. I will take care and eat enough to last me both today and tomorrow."
While he was congratulating himself and wagging his tail to convey his pleasure to his friend, the Cook saw him moving about among his dishes and, seizing him by his fore and hind paws, bundled him without ceremony out of the window. He fell with force upon the ground and limped away, howling dreadfully. His yelling soon attracted other street dogs, who came up to him and inquired how he had enjoyed his supper. He replied, "Why, to tell you the truth, I drank so much wine that I remember nothing. I do not know how I got out of the house."
作客的狗
一天，有個人大擺酒席，設宴招待親朋好友。這人家里的狗也高興地跑去請另一只狗，說：「朋友，快走，請你和我一起去赴宴。」那狗興高采烈地跑來，見到如此豐盛的筵席，他心里暗暗地說，「太好啦！真想不到天底下還有這么多好吃的！讓我飽吃一頓，明天都不會肚子餓。」他獨自暗暗地竊喜，不停地搖著尾巴，十分信任地看著他的朋友。正在這時，廚師看見狗尾巴在那里四處亂搖，立刻抓住他的腿，從窗口丟到外邊去了。那狗摔得大聲叫喚，驚慌地跑了回去。路上別的狗遇見他時，都問他：「朋友，宴會怎么樣呀？」他回答道：「我喝得太多了，已經醉了，所以我記不請回去的路了。」
這個故事帶出的啟示就是：對那些慷他人之慨的人不可信任。
