伊索寓言:年輕的浪子與燕子
The Spendthrift and the Swallow
A YOUNG MAN, a great spendthrift, had run through all his patrimony and had but one good cloak left. One day he happened to see a Swallow, which had appeared before its season, skimming along a pool and twittering gaily. He supposed that summer had come, and went and sold his cloak. Not many days later, winter set in again with renewed frost and cold. When he found the unfortunate Swallow lifeless on the ground, he said, “Unhappy bird! what have you done? By thus appearing before the springtime you have not only killed yourself, but you have wrought my destruction also.”
年輕的浪子與燕子
年輕的浪子把傳下來的祖業都揮霍一空,僅剩身穿的一件外衣。一天,他看見有一只燕子提早季節飛回,以為春天到了,不再要穿外衣了,便拿去賣了。不久一陣凜冽的北風襲來,非常寒冷,凍得他四處躲藏,碰巧見到燕子凍死在地上,便對他說道:「喂,朋友,你把我倆都毀了。」
這個故事帶出的啟示就是:不按自然規律辦事是十分危險的。
