<h2>THE CROW AND THE PITCHER</h2>
<br/>
<p>A thirsty Crow found a Pitcher with some water in it, but so
little was there that, try as she might, she could not reach it
with her beak, and it seemed as though she would die of thirst
within sight of the remedy. At last she hit upon a clever plan. She
began dropping pebbles into the Pitcher, and with each pebble the
water rose a little higher until at last it reached the brim, and
the knowing bird was enabled to quench her thirst.</p>
