The Mule
Aesop Fable: The Mule
A mule, frolicsome from lack of work and from too much
corn, galloped about in a very extravagant manner, and
said to himself: "My father surely was a high-mettled racer,
and I am his own child in speed and spirit." On the next
day, being driven a long journey, and feeling very wearied,
he exclaimed in a disconsolate tone: "I must have made a
mistake; my father, after all, could have been only a donkey."
