Olim noctu
Boeotius viator ambulat,
una cum Corinthio et Atheniensi.
Mox comites veniunt
ad rapidum flumen.
Forte altus pons iungit flumen.
Viatores ascendunt pontem
et in aqua sub pedibus vident
imaginem lunae.
Boeotius dicit,
"Ecce, pulcher caseus in aqua iacet.
Cur nos non praemium deportamus?"
Sine mora
Boeotius manibus pontem tenet,
et suspendit corpus super aquam.
Deinde
Corinthius prehendit crura amici.
Atheniensis habet tertium locum
et pedibus praemium captat.
Tum exclamat Boeotius,
"Vos tenete firmiter mea crura,
nam manus durum lignum terit."
Simul laxat manus,
et omnes in aquam decidunt.
This story is based on 925. Viatores et Pons.
