Aesop’s Fables, THE BOASTING TRAVELLER

THE BOASTING TRAVELLER

A Man once went abroad on his travels, and when he came home he had wonderful tales to tell of the things he had done in foreign countries. Among other things, he said he had taken part in a jumping-match at Rhodes, and had done a wonderful jump which no one could beat. "Just go to Rhodes and ask them," he said; "every one will tell you it's true." But one of those who were listening said, "If you can jump as well as all that, we needn't go to Rhodes to prove it. Let's just imagine this is Rhodes for a minute: and now—jump!" Deeds, not words.

A Man once went abroad on his travels, and when he came home he had wonderful tales to tell of the things he had done in foreign countries. Một người đã đi xa trong chuyến du lịch của mình, và khi anh ta về nhà, anh ta có những câu chuyện kỳ diệu để kể về những điều anh ta đã làm ở các nước ngoài. Among other things, he said he had taken part in a jumping-match at Rhodes, and had done a wonderful jump which no one could beat. Trong số những điều khác, anh ta nói rằng anh ta đã tham gia một trận đấu nhảy tại Rhodes, và đã thực hiện một cú nhảy kỳ diệu mà không ai có thể vượt qua. "Just go to Rhodes and ask them," he said; "every one will tell you it's true." But one of those who were listening said, "If you can jump as well as all that, we needn't go to Rhodes to prove it. Let's just imagine this is Rhodes for a minute: and now—jump!" Deeds, not words. Hành động, không phải lời nói.
