　　A Bat, Bramble and Cormorant

　　A bat, a bramble and a cormorant entered into covenants with articles, to join stocks, and trade in partnership together. The bat's adventure was ready money that he took up at interest; the bramble's was in cloths; and the cormorant's in brass. They put to sea, and it so fell out ,that ship and goods were both lost by stress of weather: but the three merchants byprovidence got safe to land. Since the time of this miscarriage, the bat never stirs abroad till night, for fear of his creditors. The bramble lays hold of all the deaths he can come at in hope to light upon his own again: and the cormorant is still sauntering by the sea-side, to see if he can find any of his brass cast up.

　　重大的不幸都会跟随人的一辈子。
