| |
| − | The true Fable, if it
| |
| − | rise to its high requirements, ever aims at one great end and
| |
| − | purpose representation of human motive, and the improvement of
| |
| − | human conduct, and yet it so conceals its design under the
| |
| − | disguise of fictitious characters, by clothing with speech the
| |
| − | animals of the field, the birds of the air, the trees of the
| |
| − | wood, or the beasts of the forest, that the reader shall receive
| |
| − | advice without perceiving the presence of the adviser. [http://www.aesopfables.com/cgi/aesop1.cgi?1&Preface]
