개구장이 아이들이 연못가에서 놀고 있다가 낮은 물가에 개구리들이 수영을 하고 있는 것을 보고는
장난삼아 돌을 던져서 몇마리를 죽였다.
결국 개구리들은 머리를 물 바깥으로 내 놓고는,
"오! 제발 멈춰줘요. 돌 던지는 것이 너희들에게는 오락이지만, 우리에게는 죽음이란 말야."
THE BOYS AND THE FROGS
Some mischievous Boys were playing on the edge of a pond, and,
catching sight of some Frogs swimming about in the shallow water, they
began to amuse themselves by pelting them with stones, and they killed
several of them. At last one of the Frogs put his head out of the
water and said, "Oh, stop! stop! I beg of you: what is sport to you is
death to us."
