Besedilo
Gad in pila
A viper entered a coppersmith’s workshop and asked the tools for contributions. After receiving something from them, he came to the file and begged her to give him something too. She replied, “You are foolish indeed if you think you will get anything from me. I am accustomed not to giving, but to taking from everyone.” The fable shows that those who expect to gain anything from misers hope in vain.

Ἔχις εἰσελθών εἰς χαλκουργοῦ ἐργαστήριον παρὰ τῶν σκευῶν ἔρανον ᾔτει· λαβὼν δὲ παρʼ αὐτῶν ἧκε πρὸς τὴν ῥίνην, καὶ ταύτην παρεκάλει δοῦναί τι αὐτῷ. Ἡ δὲ ὑποτυχοῦσα εἶπεν· ,,ἀλλʼ εὐήθης εἶ παρʼ ἐμοῦ ἀποίσεσθαί τι οἰόμενος, ἥτις οὐ διδόναι ἀλλὰ λαμβάνειν παρὰ πάντων εἴωθα.“
Ὁ λόγος δηλοῖ, ὅτι μάταιοί εἰσιν οἱ παρὰ φιλαργύρων τι κερδαίνειν προσδοκῶντες.
