A gull swallowed a fish, and when its throat burst, it lay dead on the shore. A kite saw it and said, “You have got what you deserve: born a bird, you chose to make your living at sea.” So those who abandon their own pursuits and take up others unsuited to them naturally come to grief.
Λάρος ἰχθὺν καταπιὼν, καὶ τοῦ φάρυγγος αὐτοῦ διαρραγέντος, ἐπὶ τῆς ἠϊόνος ἔκειτο νεκρός. Ἰκτῖνος δὲ αὐτὸν θεασάμενος ἔφη· ,, ἄξια σὺ πέπονθας, ὅτι πτηνὸς γεννηθεὶς ἐπὶ θαλάσσης τὴν δίαιταν ἐποιοῦ.“
Οὕτως οἱ τὰ οἰκεῖα ἐπιτηδεύματα λείποντες καὶ τοῖς μὴ προσήκουσιν ἐπιβάλλοντες εἰκότως δυστυχοῦσι.
