An ass
congratulated a Horse on being so ungrudgingly and carefully provided for,
while he himself had scarcely enough to eat and not even that without hard
work. But when war broke out, a heavily armed soldier mounted the Horse, and
riding him to the charge, rushed into the very midst of the enemy. The Horse
was wounded and fell dead on the battlefield. Then the Ass, seeing all these
things, changed his mind, and commiserated the Horse.
