The Bald Knight

A certain Knight growing old, his hair fell off, and he became bald; to hide which imperfection, he wore a wig. But as he was riding out hunting, with some others, a sudden gust of wind blew off the wig, and exposed his bald pate. The company could not forbear laughing at the accident; and he himself laughed as loud as anybody, saying; "How was it to be expected that I should keep strange hair upon my head, when my own would not stay there?"
