<h2>THE CROW AND THE SWAN</h2>
<br/>
<p>A Crow was filled with envy on seeing the beautiful white
plumage of a Swan, and thought it was due to the water in which the
Swan constantly bathed and swam. So he left the neighbourhood of
the altars, where he got his living by picking up bits of the meat
offered in sacrifice, and went and lived among the pools and
streams. But though he bathed and washed his feathers many times a
day, he didn't make them any whiter, and at last died of hunger
into the bargain.</p>
