4、lack rock - honey syrup 昔有愚人煮黑石蜜，有一富人來至其家。時此愚人便作是念：“我今當取黑石蜜漿，與此富人。即著少水，用置火中，即于火上，以扇扇之，望得使冷。 once upon a time, a man was boiling black rock-honey syrup, when a rich mancame to his house. he thought he would give the syrup to the rich man. he poureda little water into it and put it on a slow fire. he

8、脫俗境界，這是肯定做不到的，只能讓得到人生真諦的人們譏笑。不僅在如今的生活中承受苦難，還會使災難連續到將來的歲月中。 英文寓言故事3 【百喻經之四婦詐稱死喻】 the wife pretends to be dead 時有愚人，其婦端正，情甚愛重。婦無直信，后于中間共他交往，邪淫心盛，欲逐旁夫，舍離己婿。於是密語一老母言：“我去之后，汝可赍一死婦女尸，安著屋中。語我夫言，云我已死。 once upon a time there was a stupid man who loved very much his beautifulwife. however, she had no true lov

12、wered, my wife died a long time ago. who are you to lie tome that you are my wife? the husband refused to believe her, in spite of herrepeated explanations. 如彼外道，聞他邪說，心生惑著，謂為真實，永不行改。雖聞正教，不信受持。 so are the heretics who, having learned the heretical doctrine, confusedlystick to it with all their soul a

13、nd take the doctrine to be the right onewithout altering their mind forever. thus they will be unable to believe, acceptor keep any other creed even it is an orthodox one. 白話： 從前有一位愚蠢的人，他的妻子長得端莊大方，他很寵愛和敬重她。但妻子不坦白老實，在以后和別的男子有來往，欲火中燒，急欲追隨情夫，拋棄自己的丈夫。在離家前，她偷偷地托付一位老太婆說：“我走后，你送去一具婦女的尸體放在我屋里，告知我丈夫，說我已經死了。老
