O izvirniku

Besedilo
Osel in pes
A donkey and a dog were travelling together. Finding a sealed letter on the ground, the donkey picked it up, broke the seal, unfolded it, and read it aloud to the dog. The letter happened to be about fodder—grass, barley, and straw. The dog grew bored as the donkey read these things out, and said to him, “Skip ahead a little, my dear fellow, and see whether you can find anything about meat and bones.” But when the donkey had read through the whole letter without finding anything the dog was looking for, the dog spoke again: “Throw it on the ground, my friend. It is utterly worthless.”

Ὄνος καὶ κύων ἐν ταὐτῷ ὡδοιπόρουν. Εὑρόντες δὲ ἐπὶ γῆς ἐσφραγισμένον γραμμάτιον, ὁ ὄνος λαβὼν καὶ ἀναόῤῥήξας τὴν σφραγῖδα καὶ ἀναπτύξας, διεξῄει εἰς ἐπήκοον τοῦ κυνός. Περὶ βοσκημάτων δὲ ἐτύγχανε τὰ γράμματα, χόρτου τε, φημὶ, καὶ κριθῆς καὶ ἀχύρου. Αηδῶς οὖν ὁ κύων, τοῦ ὄνου ταῦτα διεξιόντος, διέκειτο· ἔνθεν δὴ καὶ ἔφησε τῷ ὄνῳ· ,,ὑπόβαθι, φίλτατε, μικρὸν, μή τι καὶ περὶ κρεῶν καὶ ὀστέων εὕρῃς διαλαμβάνον Ὁ δὲ ὄνος ἅπαν τὸ γραμμάτιον διεξελθὼν, καὶ μηδὲν εὑρηκὼς ὧν ὁ κύων ἐζήτει, ἀντέφησεν αὖθις ὁ κύων· ,,βάλε κατὰ γῆς, ὡς ἀδόκιμον πάντη, φίλε, τυγχάνον.“
