Daily Aesop's Fables:

The Herdsman and the Lost Calf.

A herdsman, who had lost a calf, went roaming through the forest intent on finding it. After a long and fruitless search, he made a vow to all the nymphs of the forest and the mountains, as well as to Mercury and to Pan, that he would sacrifice a lamb to them if they would help him discover who stole his calf. Not long afterwards, as he reached the summit of a hill, he saw a lion feeding on the calf. And now the unhappy man vowed to sacrifice a full-grown bull along with the lamb if the gods would only let him escape from the thief's clutches.

Daily Aesop's Fables:

The Cock and the Jewel

A cock was scratching the ground in a farmyard in search of food for himself and his hens, when he happened to turn up a jewel. Feeling quite sure it was something precious, but not knowing entirely what to do with it, he remarked, "You're undoubtedly a very fine thing for those who appreciate your worth. But I've rather have one grain of delicious barley than all the jewels in the world."
