To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
of corn a single grain Had been a better prize.
The careful Hen, at length quite pleas'd, An apple's core discern'd ; Kcr infant train the treasure seiz'd, When each its hunger soon appeas'd. , The paltry jewel spurn'd.
Though brilliant Gold and Jewels seem, They shrink from virtue's test ; These mental stores good friends esteem Try to obtain, and always deem Whate'er is useful best.
29 FABLE XIV.
The Daw in borrowed Pluntet.
AN ignorant creature, A poor silly Daw, Some gay Peacock's feathers ...With ecstasy saw : The sun shone so bright On the colours so gay, That she wish'd herself dress'd In such brilliant array.
(f For, " said she, " I am thinking, " (The thought was absurd), " If well dress'd, I should be An exceeding fine bird : Preferr'd to a Peacock, If near one I come, Because I can speak, And the Peacock is dumb.
So she stuck on the feathers, And ran for to look At her dear silly self, In a neighbouring brook. Quite pleas'd with her person, She scorn'd her own breed, And was almost as proud As a Peacock indeed.
