The Camel and Jupiter

The Camel, when he saw the Bull
adorned with horns, envied him
and wished that he himself could
obtain the same honors. He went
to Jupiter, and besought him to
give him horns. Jupiter, vexed
at his request because he was
not satisfied with his size and
strength of body, and desired
yet more, not only refused to
givehim horns, but even deprived
him of a portion of his ears.
