Title of
Aesop's Fables:
The Crow and Mercury
|
A CROW caught in a snare prayed to Apollo to release him, making
a vow to offer some frankincense at his shrine. But when rescued
from his danger, he forgot his promise. Shortly afterwards,
again caught in a snare, he passed by Apollo and made the same
promise to offer frankincense to Mercury. Mercury soon appeared
and said to him, 'O thou most base fellow? how can I believe
thee, who hast disowned and wronged thy former patron?'
