[00:03.47]The Marbles2大理石
[00:06.22]Once upon a time, there was a foolish boy who had a bag full of beautiful marbles.
[00:12.02]Now this boy was quite proud of his marbles.
[00:15.81]In fact, he thought so much of them
[00:18.25]that he would neither play with them himself nor would he let anyone else play with them.
[00:24.46]He only took them out of the bag in order to count and admire them;
[00:28.64]they were never used for their intended purpose.
[00:32.22] Yet that boy carried that coveted3 bag of marbles everywhere he went.
[00:37.36]Well, there was also a wise boy who wished he could have such a fine bag of marbles.
[00:43.40] So this boy worked hard and earned money to purchase a nice bag to hold marbles.
[00:49.30] Even though he had not yet earned enough with which to purchase any marbles,
[00:54.00] he had faith and purchased the marble1 bag.
[00:57.19] He took special care of the bag
[00:59.78]and dreamed of the day it would contain marbles
[01:02.85]with which he could play and share with his friends.
[01:05.83]Alas, the foolish boy with all of the marbles didn’t take care of the marble bag itself,
[01:11.49] and one day the bag developed a hole in the bottom seam4.
[01:15.53]Still, he paid no attention and, one by one, the marbles fell out of the bag.
[01:22.10]It didn’t take long, once the foolish boy’s marble bag developed a hole,
[01:27.56]for the wise boy to begin to find those beautiful marbles,
[01:31.55]one at a time, lying unnoticed on the ground.
[01:34.85] And, one by one, he added5 them to his marble bag.
[01:39.43] The wise boy thus gained a fine bag full of marbles in no time at all.
[01:44.68]This boy played with the marbles and shared them with all of his friends.
[01:49.00] And he always took special care of the bag so he wouldn’t lose any.
[01:54.53]And what about the foolish boy?
[01:56.84]Because he was selfish6 and careless,
[01:59.55] he lost all of his marbles and was left holding the bag.
