Desperate Cricket
There was a cricket. He used to sing all through the pleasant months of summer and spring. When winter arrived, he found that there was no food at home. Then he said “What will become of me ?” He became desperate by starvation. He went to an ant. He requested him to lend him a shelter from rain and some food. He promised to return it. He added that if the ant did not do what he wanted, he would die.
Miserly Ant
The ant replied that the ants did not ever borrow or lend. He, however, asked the cricket if he did not lay by anything in good weather. He asked him what he did during the warm weather. The cricket replied he was very glad in that pleasant weather. In his happiness, he kept on singing all the time. At this the ant advised him to pass away the winter by danc¬ing. Saying so, the ant turned the cricket out of his house.
Summary of:- The ant and the Cricket
Once, there was a foolish young cricket. He was always singing and dancing. He spent the happy days of summer and spring singing. He layby nothing for the rainy days.
The winter set in the background and trees were covered with snow. The cricket had nothing to eat. He begin to starve. He was sure that he would die without food. So, he went to the ant. He requested to lend him a mouthfull of grain. He promised it to return the great next day. The wise ant told him that the ants neither borrow nor lend.
Then the ant asked him if he had lain by nothing for the winter. The cricket replued that the weather was very fine so he sang day and night. On listen to these words the ant said to him, " Go, dance the winter away". Saying this it facility opened its doors or at the idle cricket out of his house.
It is a fable with the moral that one must work hard and save for the rainy day. If you live without work you must live without food.
