凿井于路旁，用济路人之渴。一有堕之者，山则罪凿井焉。
——《伸蒙子》
The
Well
A
well was sunk by the roadside. People in the habit of using the road who had
not been able to find a drop of water to quench their thirst in the past found
it very convenient. After
some time, however, a man going home one night fell into the well and was
drowned. Then people began to blame the person who had chosen that site for the
well.
