A golden-winged peacock was quarreling with a graceful crane, mocking the color of the crane’s plumage. But the crane replied, “I fly close to the stars and call out, while you, like a cock, flap your wings on the ground and are never seen aloft.”

Ἤιζεν εὐφυεῖ γεράνῳ ταὼς χρυσόπτερος, σκώπτουσα τὴν χροιὰν τῆς γεράνου. Ἡ δʼ ἔφη· ,,ἀλλʼ ἐγώ ἄστρων ἐγγὺς ἵπταμαι καὶ φωνῶ· σὺ δὲ, ὡς ἀλέκτωρ, χαμαὶ πτερύσσῃ οὐδʼ ἄνω φαίνῃ.“
