Monkeys and Dolphins

Sailors like to bring some animals for entertainment during the voyage. One sailor brought a monkey on his voyage, and when they reached the Straits of Sunium in Attica, Athens, a storm suddenly arose. The ship was overturned by the violent wind and waves, and everyone jumped into the water to escape. The monkey also cleverly jumped into the water. The dolphin saw it and mistook it for a human. It immediately swam under the monkey, lifted it up, and safely delivered it to the shore. Upon arriving at the Piraeus port of Athens, the dolphin asked the monkey if he was an Athenian. He replied: "Yes, my ancestors were all famous and noble." The dolphin then asked him if he knew Piraeus. The monkey thought the dolphin was talking about a person, so he answered: "He is a very good friend of mine." The dolphin was extremely angry at the monkey's lies and stopped holding the monkey up, letting him drown in the sea.

This story is about those who talk nonsense.
