<h2>THE POMEGRANATE, THE APPLE-TREE, AND THE BRAMBLE</h2>
<br/>
<p>A Pomegranate and an Apple-tree were disputing about the quality
of their fruits, and each claimed that its own was the better of
the two. High words passed between them, and a violent quarrel was
imminent, when a Bramble impudently poked its head out of a
neighbouring hedge and said, "There, that's enough, my friends;
don't let us quarrel."</p>
