| 1 a farmer placed nets on his newly-sown plowlands and caught a number of cranes which came to pick up his seed | |
| 2 with them he trapped a stork that had fractured his leg in the net and was earnestly beseeching the farmer to spare his life | |
| 3 pray save me master | |
| 4 he said | |
| 5 and let me go free this once | |
| 6 my broken limb should excite your pity | |
| 7 besides i am no crane i am a stork a bird of excellent character | |
| 8 and see how i love and slave for my father and mother | |
| 9 look too at my feathers -- they are not the least like those of a crane | |
| 10 the farmer laughed aloud and said | |
| 11 it may be all as you say i only know this i have taken you with these robbers the cranes and you must die in their company |
