A goat was straying in a vineyard, and began to browse¹ on the tender shoots of a vine which bore several fine bunches of grapes.

 

"What have I done to you," said the vine, "that you should harm me thus? Isn't  there grass enough for you to feed on? All the same, even if you eat up every leaf I have, and leave me quite bare, I shall produce wine enough to pour over you when you are led to the altar（祭坛，圣坛） to be sacrificed."
