O izvirniku

Kratke basni, kjer živali v nekaj potezah razkrijejo človeške slabosti. Bralni jezik je English, izvirnik pa prihaja iz vira Ezopove basni v jeziku Ancient Greek.
Besedilo
Pes s kosom mesa
A dog carrying a piece of meat was crossing a river. Seeing her own reflection in the water, she mistook it for another dog carrying a larger piece of meat. So she dropped her own and lunged to snatch the other dog’s. Thus she lost both: she could not get the one, because it did not exist, and the other was swept away by the river.
This tale is well suited to a greedy man.

Κύων κρέας ἔχουσα ποταμὸν διέβαινε· θεασαμένη δὲ τὴν ἑαυτῆς σκιὰν κατὰ τοῦ ὕδατος, ὑπέλαβεν ἑτέραν κύνα εἶναι, μεῖζον κρέας ἔχουσαν· διόπερ ἀφεῖσα τὸ ἴδιον ὥρμησεν ὡς τὸ ἐκείνης ἀφαιρησομένη. Συνέβη δʼ αὐτῇ ἀμφοτέρων στερηθῆναι, τοῦ μὲν μὴ ἐφικομένῃ, διότι μηδὲ ἦν, τοῦ δʼ, ὅτι ὑπὸ τοῦ ποταμοῦ παρεσύρη.
Πρὸς ἂνδρα πλεονέκτην ὁ λόγος εὔκαιρος.
