The Peasant And The Eagle
乡下人和老鹰
A Peasant found an Eagle captured in a trap, and, much admiring the bird, set him free.
一位乡下人看见捕鸟机中捉到了一只老鹰，他非常欣赏这只老鹰，就将它放走。
The Eagle did not prove ungrateful to his deliverer, for seeing him sit under a wall, which was not safe, he flew towards him, and snatched off with his talons a bundle resting on hishead, and on his rising to pursue him he let the bundle fall again.
有一次老鹰看见他坐在一座摇摇欲坠的墙边，就向他飞去，用爪将放在他头上的包裹攫去。乡下人起来追赶它，它便将包裹放掉。
The Peasant taking it up, and returning to the same place, found the wall under which he had been sitting fallen to the ground; and he much marvelled at the requital made him by the Eagle for the service he had rendered him.
乡下人捡起了包裹，回到老地方去，看见他刚才坐的墙已经倾倒了。他对于这只老鹰，曾经受过他的恩惠，现在却能报恩，觉得非常惊讶。
