THE BOY BATHING AND THE TRAVELER

A traveler happened upon a drowning boy who had foolishly chosen to bathe in a
river with a swift current. The traveler chastised the boy for his imprudence
and then left him to drown. As he sank beneath the water the boy thought,
"How worthless it is to offer criticism without aid.".
