A rooster, who was looking, scratching in the yard, for food for himself and his chickens, without meaning to, ends up finding a precious stone of great beauty and value. But, after observing it and examining it for a few moments, he turns around and comments desolately: - Well, well, if instead of me, my owner had he found you, he would certainly not have been able to hold back in the face of such joy, and he would almost certainly have put you in a place worthy of worship. However, I found you and you are of no use to me. Before that, he would rather have found a single grain of corn than all the jewels in the world!
