The Dung Beetle (13) [The Dung Beetle]
The Dung Beetle (13)
And so he did.
He ran away.
All day the wives waited, and all night too ; then they declared themselves widows.
The other dung beetles were angry and called him a ne'er-do-well, because they feared that now they would have to support the deserted wives.
" Just behave as if you were virgins again, " said thier mother.
" Com, you are still my innocent girls. But shame on the tramp who abandoned you. "
In the meantime, the dung beetle was sailing across the ditch on a cabbage leaf. It was morning and two human beings who happened to be passing noticed him and picked him up.
They turned the dung beetle over and looked at him from all sides, for these two men were scholars.
