Aesop's Fables Edited by Charles Stikeney.

THE RAVEN AND THE SWAN

A Raven saw a   snowy Swan floating on the
lake.
   "No wonder he is so white," thought the
Raven, as he looked at his own black feathers.
"I should be, if I were all the time washing
myself. I'll try it."
   Then he left his home, where he always
found plenty to eat, and came and lived by the
lake, and washed himself from morning till
night; but he grew no whiter; and, as   he
found nothing to eat, he soon died for want
of food.
