The Charcoal-Burner and the Fuller
A CHARCOAL-BURNER carried on his trade in his own house.
One day he met a friend, a Fuller, and entreated him to come and
live with him,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], saying that they should be far better neighbors and
that their housekeeping expenses would be lessened. The Fuller
replied, "The arrangement is impossible as far as I am concerned,
for whatever I should whiten, you would immediately blacken again
with your charcoal."
Like will draw like.
The Father and His Sons
A FATHER had a family of sons who were perpetually quarreling
among themselves. When he failed to heal their disputes by his
exhortations, he determined to give them a practical illustration
of the evils of disunion; and for this purpose he one day told
them to bring him a bundle of sticks. When they had done so, he
placed the faggot into the hands of each of them in succession,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],
and ordered them to break it in pieces. They tried with all their
strength,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and were not able to do it.
