Image: Canis et Dominus Morans


M0367 - M0368 - M0369
368. Canis et Dominus Morans. Iter qui meditabatur, aliquis adstanti caniculae “Quid hias?” dixit; “cuncta tibi fac parata sint. Mecum etenim venies.” Quae, caudam levans, “Cuncta,” inquit, “mea mihi sunt parata. Tu vero moraris.”



M0368 = Perry330. Source: Babrius 110 (translated into Latin prose). This is Perry 330. Compare the fable where the man who forgot to do something gets angry at the dog instead, #367.
