Answer:
The donkey and the load of salt
A Salt Merchant drove his Donkey to the seashore to buy salt. His road home lay across a stream into which his Donkey tripped and fell by accident. When the Donkey got out of the water, his load considerably lighter, as the water melted the salt in the sack.
The Merchant went back to the market by the seashore and refilled his bags with a larger quantity of salt than before. When he came again to the stream, the Donkey fell down on purpose in the same spot, and, regaining his feet with the weight of his load much diminished, brayed triumphantly as if he had obtained what he desired.
The Merchant saw through this trick and drove the Donkey for the third time to the coast, where he bought a cargo of sponges instead of salt.
The Donkey, again playing the fool, fell down on purpose when he reached the stream, but the sponges became swollen with water, greatly increasing his load. Thus his trick recoiled on him, for he now carried on his back a double burden.
Moral: Don’t try a trick too often or it will turn against you.

Explanation:
One day the donkey was carrying a load of salt as usual. The donkey had to cross through a stream in the way. By chance the animal slipped in the middle of the stream and the load of salt fell into the water. It took some time to help the donkey to take out the load of salt and load it again on its back.
