42. De Piscatore, & Smaride pisciculo.

1. PIscator, qui mari rete tetendit, eo Smaridem cepit pisciculum; qui parva adhuc aetate, piscatorem orabat ut dum grandis esset, atque majorem quaestum ex eo assequi posset, ei vitam donaret.

Mor. Fabula significat, quòd certa pro incertis, quamvis in cis mag∣na esset spes, stultum esset dimittere.
