　　正文：

　　A grasshopper sat chirping in the branches of a tree.

　　A fox hear her, and, thinking what a dainty morsel she would make, he tried to get her down by a trick.

　　Standing below in full view of her, he praised her song in the most flattering terms, and begged her to descend5, saying he would like to make the acquaintance of the owner of so beautiful a voice.

　　But she was not to be taken in, and replied, "You are very much mistaken, my dear sir, if you imagine I am going to come down: I keep well out of the way of you and your kind ever since the day when I saw numbers of grasshoppers6 wings strewn about the entrance to a fox's earth."

　　翻譯：

　　一只蚱蜢坐在樹(shù)枝上嘰嘰喳喳地叫。

　　一只狐貍聽(tīng)見(jiàn)她說(shuō)話，心里想著她會(huì)做出多么美味的一點(diǎn)東西，就想用一個(gè)詭計(jì)把她弄下來(lái)。

　　他站在下面，全神貫注地看著她，用 恭維的口吻稱贊了她的歌，并求她降5級(jí)，說(shuō)他想結(jié)識(shí)這么美的一個(gè)聲音的主人。

　　但她沒(méi)有被收留，回答說(shuō)：“親愛(ài)的先生，如果你以為我要下來(lái)，你就大錯(cuò)特錯(cuò)了。自從我看見(jiàn)成群結(jié)隊(duì)的蚱蜢在狐貍的地上撒滿翅膀的那一天起，我就一直躲在你和你同類的路上。”
