The Swallow and the Crow 燕子與烏鴉
THE SWALLOW and the Crow had a contention abouttheir plumage. The Crow put an end to the dispute bysaying, "Your feathers are all very well in the spring, butmine protect me against the winter."
Fair weather friends are not worth much.
燕子與烏鴉爭吵誰最美麗。烏鴉對燕子說:“春天才能看到你美麗的外貌,我的身體卻可以抵禦冬季的嚴寒。”
這是說,健康的身體是最漂亮的外貌。
