the cock and the jewel

An energetic young rooster was scratching at the dust from the ground when he found a piece of jewelry. Convinced ___ that he had found something precious, but not really knowing what to do with it, the rooster looked important and said to the jewel:

- Look, I know you are a very fine thing. It's just not my taste. As a matter of fact, I far preferred a grain of delicious barley.

Moral: Sometimes what is precious to one is worthless to another.
