The Frogs desiring a King

The Frogs desiring a King

   - A Fable of Aesop

    
   The frogs were living as happy as could be in a wet marsh that just suited them. They went splashing about caring for nobody and nobody troubling with them. But some of them thought that this was not right, that they should have a king and a proper constitution.

   So they determined to send up a request to the Jove (Lord of the God) to give them what they wanted. 

 

   "Mighty Jove," the frogs cried, "Send unto us a king that will rule over us and keep us in order." 

 

   The Jove laughed at their croaking, and He threw them down to the marsh and a huge Log as their king into the marsh.
