THE FROGS’ COMPLAINT AGAINST THE SUN
Once upon a time the Sun was about
to take to himself a wife. The Frogs in terror
all raised their voices to the skies, and Jupiter,
disturbed by the noise, asked them what they were croaking
about. They replied, “The Sun is bad enough
even while he is single, drying up our marshes with
his heat as he does. But what will become of us
if he marries and begets other Suns?”
