Fable 263 - The Ass Bought in the Market

A man who intended to buy an ass took it on trial and led it to the manger to mix with his others. But the ass, turning its back on
the others, went and stood beside the laziest and fattest of the lot. As it stood there and did nothing, the man put a halter on it
and led it back to its owner. The owner asked the man if he had given it a fair trial, and he replied:
‘I don’t need any further trial. I am certain of what he’s like because of the companion he chose from among the lot.’


This fable shows that people judge us by the company we keep.
