      The Sick Stag


There was a sick Stag who lay down in a quiet corner of the ground.

His friends and relatives came in great numbers to inquire after his health, and each one helped himself to a share of the food which had been placed for his use; so that he died, not from his sickness, but from the failure of the means of living.

 Moral: Evil companions bring more hurt than profit.
