The Belly and the Members

Mon March 26, 2012 by Kunal Bansal

THE MEMBERS of the Body rebelled against the Belly, and said, 'Why should we be perpetually engaged in administering to your wants, while you do nothing but take your rest, and enjoy yourself in luxury and self-indulgence?' The Members carried out their resolve and refused their assistance to the Belly. The whole Body quickly became debilitated, and the hands, feet, mouth, and eyes, when too late, repented of their folly.
