One of the calves complained about this to the other.

The other calf was wise. He said, “It is dangerous to envy anybody.

The pig is being fed rich food because he will be served at a wedding that is to take place here.”

Sure enough, on the wedding day, the pig was taken away to be served to the people.

The wise calf said, “Did you see what happened? Our poor grass and hay are a hundred times better than the rich food the pig was given.

Our food brings no harm to us, but instead promises long life!”
