Penrhyn Wingfield Coussens, The Jade Story Book — The Crane and the Crab (1922)
“ And although if the fish in this pond are all captured there would be none left for me to subsist upon, it breaks my heart to think of the fate that is in store for them. Therefore am I so sad." Now some of the fishes overheard what the Crane said to the Crab, and they at once called a general meeting. One of them said: "In this case the Crane's interests are the same as ours, because, while we furnish the food which keeps him alive there are many of us left, but when the fishermen capture us we shall die. Let us therefore confer with the Crane." ”
