寓言故事|The Man and the Eagle

来源:www.sheijiao.com 2025-02-26
AN Eagle was once captured by a Man, who clipped his wings and put
him in the poultry1 yard, along with the chickens. The Eagle was
much depressed2 in spirits by the change.
Why should you not rather rejoice? said the Man. You were only
an ordinary fellow as an eagle; but as an old rooster you are a
fowl3 of incomparable distinction.
