Perceiving their simplicity, he cast down a huge log into the lake. The Frogs were terrified at the splash occasioned by its fall and hid themselves in the depths of the pool.

He then gave them an Eel to govern them. When the Frogs discovered his easy good nature, they sent yet a third time to Jupiter to beg him to choose for them still another King. Jupiter, displeased with all their complaints, sent a Heron, who preyed upon the Frogs day by day till there were none left to croak upon the lake.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1555</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reputation is an idle and most false imposition; oft got without merit and lost without deserving. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51445]]></link><description><![CDATA[Reputation is an idle and most false imposition; oft got without merit and lost without deserving.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51445</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Men do not die from overwork.
