                                   FABLE
                    Ralph Waldo Emerson

The mountain and the squirrel
                    Had a quarrel
And the former called the latter 'Little Prig'.
                        Bun replied,
            'You are doubtless very big;
    But all sorts of things and weather
            Must be taken in together,
                     To make up a year
                          And a sphere.
       And I think it no disgrace
              To occupy my place.
       If I'm not so large as you,
       You are not so small as I,
             And not half so spry.
       A very preety squrreltrack;
Tallents differ; all is well and wisely put;
    If I cannot carry forests on my back,
             Neither can you crack a nut'.



পাঠ্যাংশের বঙ্গানুবাদ:
                      পর্বত ও কাঠবিড়ালি
                      একটি বিবাদ করেছিল
এবং প্রথ্ম জ্ন পরের জনকে বলেছিল 'ছোট্ট আত্ম ন্যায়্পরায়্ণ ব্যাক্তি'
                       বান উত্তর দিয়েছি ল,
           'সন্দেহ্হিন ভাবে তুমি খুব বড়ো;
        কিন্তু সবধরনের বস্তু এবং আবহাওয়াকে
         অবশ্যই একসঙ্গে বিবেচনা করতে হবে
                   একটি ব্ছর তেরি করতে
            এবং একটি গোলক তেরি করতে
  এবং আমি এটাকে কোন অপমানের মনে করিনা
         নিজের স্থান অধিকার করে থাকাটা
যদি আমি তোমার মতো এত বড় না হই
        তুমিও আমার মতো এত ছোট নও,
এবং (তুমি আমার মতো ) অর্ধেকও প্রাণব্ন্ত নও।
          আমি অস্বিকার করবোনা যে তুমি কর
       একটি খুব সুন্দর কাঠবিড়ালি যাবার পথ;
প্রতিভা আলাদা হয়;সব কিছু ঠিক ও বুদ্ধিমত্তার সঙ্গে রাখা আছে;
  আমি যদি পিঠে করে জঙ্গল বয়ে নিয়ে যেতে না পারি,
               তুমিও একটি বাদাম ভাঙতে পার না'।
