A Dog, crossing a bridge over a stream with a
piece of flesh in his mouth, saw his own shadow in the water and took it for
that of another Dog, with a piece of meat double his own in size. He
immediately let go of his own, and fiercely attacked the other Dog to get his
larger piece from him. He thus lost both: that which he grasped at in the
water, because it was a shadow; and his own, because the stream swept it away.
