The Miller, His Son and Their Ass Story with Moral Lesson
Once a miller and his son were going to a fair. They carried with them their ass for selling. Neither of them was riding it. Seeing this, some people laughed and said, “What fools you are? You have an ass but, both of you are walking, while one of you could easily ride.” At this father asked his son to ride. They had just gone a little far when they came across some old men. One of them spoke to the boy. “Are you not ashamed of yourself? You are riding while your old father is walking.” Hearing this, the boy got down and the miller rode the ass. Then they came across a group of old women. They condemned the man for being so cruel to the boy. As the father did not want to displease them, he asked his son to sit behind him. As they went further, they met a man. He said: “Why are you so cruel to the poor ass? You had better carry him on your shoulders.” To please everybody, they tied the legs of the animal and carried it on their shoulders. On the way, they had to cross a bridge. The ass got frightened. It gave a jerk and fell down into the river and drowned.
