Besedilo
Kmet in Sreča
A farmer came upon some gold while digging. Every day thereafter he crowned the Earth with garlands, believing she had bestowed this blessing on him. But Fortune appeared before him and said, “My good man, why do you give the Earth credit for my gifts, which I gave you because I wished to make you rich? For if circumstances should change and this gold of yours pass into other hands, I know that you will then blame me, Fortune.” The fable shows that we should recognize our benefactor and give thanks where they are due.

Γεωργός τις σκάπτων χρυσίῳ περιέτυχε. Καθʼ ἑκάστην οὖν τὴν Γῆν, ὡς ὑπʼ αὐτῆς εὐεργετηθεὶς, ἔστεφε. Τῷ δὲ ἡ Τύχη ἐπιστᾶσά φησιν· ,,ὦ οὗτος, τί τῇ Γῇ τὰ ἐμὰ δῶρα προσανατίθης, ἅπερ ἐγώ σοι δέδωκα, πλουτίσαι σε βουλομένη; Κἰ γὰρ ὁ καιρὸς μεταβάλοι, καὶ πρὸς ἑτέρας χεῖρας τοῦτό σοι τὸ χρυσίον ἔλθοι, οἶδʼ ὅτι τηνικαῦτα ἐμὲ, τὴν Τύχην, μέμψῃ.“
Ὁ μῦθος δηλοῖ, ὅτι χρὴ τὸν εὐεργέτην ἐπιγινωσκειν καὶ τούτῳ χάριτας ἀποδιδόναι.
