The Old Woman and The Wine Jar; An Aesop’s Fable

April 19, 2011 | Leave a Comment

An Old Woman found an empty cask that had once contained a fine old wine and that still retained the fragrant smell of it’s former contents.  She greedily placed it several times under her nose and, drawing it backwards and forwards, said, “Delicious!  How nice the Wine must have been when it leaves behind so sweet a perfume?”

The memory of a good deed lives on.
