A Fly sat on one of the shafts of a cart and said to the Mule who was pulling it,
一只苍蝇坐在车辕上，对拉它的骡子说:
"How slow you are! Do mend your pace, or I shall have to use my sting as a goad."
“你真慢!一定要加快你的步伐，否则我就用我的刺戳你了。”
The Mule was not in the least disturbed.
骡子丝毫没有感到干扰。
"Behind me, in the cart," said he,
“在我后面，在车里，”他说，
"sits my master.
“坐着的才是我的主人。
He holds the reins, and flicks me with his whip, and him I obey, but I don't want any of your impertinence.
他握着缰绳，用鞭子抽我，我服从他，但我不接受你的任何无礼。
I know when I may dawdle and when I may not."
我知道什么时候该磨蹭，什么时候不该磨蹭。”
