Description
Excerpt from Æsops Fables
Born a slave, with no outward circumstances of fortune to recommend him to the notice of the great, he forced his way by his mother-wit into the courts of princes, and laid the foundation of a fame, more universal, and perhaps more lasting in its in?uence, than that of all the Seven Wise Men of Greece, his worthy contemporaries.
