The Farmer and the Stork : ウィキペディア英語版 | The Farmer and the Stork
The Farmer and the Stork is one of Aesop's fables and is numbered 194 in the Perry Index.〔(Aesopica site )〕 It appears in Greek in the collections of both Babrius and Aphthonius and has differed little in the telling over the centuries. The story relates how a farmer plants traps in his field to catch the cranes and geese that are stealing the seeds he has sown. When he checks the traps, he finds among the other birds a stork, who pleads to be spared because it is harmless and has taken no part in the theft. The farmer replies that since it has been caught in the company of thieves, it must suffer the same fate. The moral of the story, which is announced beforehand in the oldest texts, is that associating with bad companions will lead to bad consequences. ==References==
