A Cock, scratching the ground for something to eat, turned up a Jewel that had by chance been dropped there. "Ho!" said he, "a fine thing you are, no doubt, and, had your owner found you, great would his joy have been. But for me, give me a single grain of corn before all the jewels in the world.
Moral Lesson:
There are some things that are important for some and not for others. Also, there are a lot of things more important than riches.
Reflection:
The cock ignored the jewel and asked for food, because he needs food, and he can't use the jewel. In life, there are things that needs to be given more importance than riches. Basic needs are more important than gold, because without gold, you will still live, but without basic needs, like food, you might just die.
