O izvirniku

Besedilo
Lisica in opica
A fox and a monkey were traveling together. As they passed through a burial ground, the monkey said to the fox, “All these dead people were freedmen of my forefathers.” The fox replied, “You have chosen a good moment to lie, for none of those buried here can prove you wrong.” This fable portrays both someone who rightly exposes liars and those who openly pass off falsehood as truth.

Ἀλώπηξ καὶ πίθηξ ἐπὶ τὸ αὐτὸ ὡδοιπόρουν. Παρερχόμενοι δὲ διὰ τινῶν μνημείων, ἔφη ὁ πίθηξ τῇ ἀλώπεκι, ὡς πάντες οἱ νεκροὶ οὗτοι ἀπελεύθεροι τῶν ἐμῶν γεννητόρων ὑπάρχουσιν. δὲ ἀλώπηξ λέγει τῷ πίθηκι· „εὐκαίρως ἐψεύσω· οὐδεὶς γὰρ τῶν ἐνταῦθα ταφέντων ἀπελέγξαι σε δύναται.“
Οὗτος ὁ μῦθος παριστᾷ τὸν τοὺς ψευδολόγους ὀρθῶς διελέγχοντα, καὶ τοὺς προδήλως τὸ ψεῦδος ἀντὶ ἀληθείας προσφέροντας.
