4、lack rock - honey syrup 昔有愚人煮黑石蜜，有一富人来至其家。时此愚人便作是念：“我今当取黑石蜜浆，与此富人。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、脱俗境界，这是肯定做不到的，只能让得到人生真谛的人们讥笑。不仅在如今的生活中承受苦难，还会使灾难连续到将来的岁月中。 英文寓言故事3 【百喻经之四妇诈称死喻】 the wife pretends to be dead 时有愚人，其妇端正，情甚爱重。妇无直信，后于中间共他交往，邪淫心盛，欲逐旁夫，舍离己婿。於是密语一老母言：“我去之后，汝可赍一死妇女尸，安著屋中。语我夫言，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，闻他邪说，心生惑著，谓为真实，永不行改。虽闻正教，不信受持。 so are the heretics who, having learned the heretical doctrine, confusedlystick to it with all their soul a
