The Ants and the Grasshopper
The ants were spending a fine winter's day drying grain collected in the summertime.
A Grasshopper, perishing with famine, passed by and earnestly begged for a little food.
The Ants inquired of him:
"Why did you not treasure up food during the summer?"
He replied:
"I had not leisure enough.
I passed the days in singing."
They then said in derision: 
"If you were foolish enough to sing all the summer, you must dance supperless to bed in the winter."
