An Ant, going to a river to drink, fell in, and was carried along in the stream.
A Dove pitied her condition,
and threw into the river a small bough,
by means of which the Ant gained the shore.
The Ant afterward, seeing a man with a fowling-piece aiming at the Dove, stung him in the foot sharply, and made him miss his aim, and so saved the Dove's life.
