The Monkey and the Camel«¶»
«¶»
The beasts of the forest gave a splendid entertainment at which the
Monkey stood up and danced. Having vastly delighted the assembly,
he sat down amidst universal applause. The Camel, envious of the
praises bestowed on the Monkey and desiring to divert to himself
the favor of the guests, proposed to stand up in his turn and dance
for their amusement. He moved about in so utterly ridiculous a
manner that Beasts, in a fit of indignation, set upon him with clubs
and drove him out of the assembly. «¶»
