伊索寓言:乌鸦与赫耳墨斯
The Crow and Mercury
A CROW caught in a snare prayed to Apollo to release him, making a vow to offer some frankincense at his shrine. But when rescued from his danger, he forgot his promise. Shortly afterwards, again caught in a snare, he passed by Apollo and made the same promise to offer frankincense to Mercury. Mercury soon appeared and said to him, "O thou most base fellow? how can I believe thee, who hast disowned and wronged thy former patron?'
乌鸦与赫耳墨斯
有只乌鸦被捕鸟夹夹住了,他祈求阿波罗,说他若能脱险,将供奉贵重物品。阿波罗解救了他,但他把许的愿丢到了脑后。不久,他又被捕鸟夹夹住了,他再不敢求阿波罗,只好向赫耳墨斯许愿。赫耳墨斯对他说:「你这坏东西,你背弃和欺骗别人,我怎么还会相信你呢?」
这个故事带出的启示就是:那些忘恩负义的人遇到灾难时,谁也不会去救他。
