Privindu-se \u00eentr-un izvor de-o limpezime rar\u0103,
\nUn cerb, odinioar\u0103,
\n\u00ce\u015fi l\u0103uda podoaba coarnelor bogat\u0103,
\nDar se g\u00e2ndea cum sufer\u0103 \u2013 \u015fi nu o dat\u0103 \u2013
\nC\u0103-i sunt picioarele ca ni\u015fte fuse,
\nA c\u0103ror sub\u0163irime \u00een ap\u0103 se pierduse.
\n\u201eDe la picioare p\u00e2n\u2019la cre\u015ftet ce dispropor\u0163ie \u2013 trist

\nV\u0103z\u00e2ndu-le \u00een unde umbra. \u00eenaltelor l\u0103stare
\nLe poate-atinge v\u00e2rful cununa mea minune.
\n\u00cen schimb, picioarele nu-mi fac deloc onoare.\u201d
\nAbia-\u015fi spusese c\u0103 nu poate acest ponos s\u0103-ndure
\nC\u0103 a z\u0103rit un c\u00e2ine-lup, de v\u00e2n\u0103toare,

\n\u00cempotrivindu-se efortului pe care
\nSpre a-l salva-l f\u0103ceau sub\u0163irele picioare.
\nTrecu atunci prin mintea-i un g\u00e2nd cu totul nou:
\nS\u0103 blesteme podoaba, al cerului cadou.
\nExager\u0103m ce e frumos, dispre\u0163uim ce e util,
\nCu toate c\u0103 frumosul ne-aduce-adesea jale;
\n\u00ce\u015fi ponegrise cerbul tot ce-l f\u0103cea agil
