An idle Horse, and a Donkey laboring under a heavy burden, were traveling the road together.

The Horse was ill-natured and refused to do it; upon which the poor Donkey tumbled down in the midst of the highway, and expired. The countryman then took the whole burden, and laid it upon the Horse, together with the skin of the dead Donkey.
