伊索寓言:人与森林之神

阅读 :

  The Man and the Satyr

  A MAN and a Satyr once drank together in token of a bond of alliance being formed between them. One very cold wintry day, as they talked, the Man put his fingers to his mouth and blew on them. When the Satyr asked the reason for this, he told him that he did it to warm his hands because they were so cold. Later on in the day they sat down to eat, and the food prepared was quite scalding. The Man raised one of the dishes a little towards his mouth and blew in it. When the Satyr again inquired the reason, he said that he did it to cool the meat, which was too hot. "I can no longer consider you as a friend," said the Satyr, "a fellow who with the same breath blows hot and cold."

  人与森林之神

  传说,从前有个人与一个森林之神萨堤罗斯交朋友。冬天到了,天气变得十分寒冷,那人把手放到嘴边不断地呵起热气来。森林之神忙问这是甚么原因,为甚么要这样做。那人回答说:「天寒手冷,呵热气手可变暖和些。」后来,他们同桌一起吃饭,桌上的饭菜热气腾腾,烫得很,那人夹起一点放到嘴边。森林之神又问他这是为何。他说饭菜太烫,把它吹凉。森林之神对人说道:「喂,朋友!我只好同你绝交了,因为你这嘴能一会儿出热气,一会儿又出冷气。」

  这个故事带出的启示就是:切不可与那些反覆无常的人交朋友。
