Some villagers were going to celebrate an important wine festival in a few days’ time, so they borrowed a huge barrel from the nearest town, put it in the village square, and decided that each of them should empty a bottle of the best wine he had into it, so that there should be plenty at the feast.
One of the villagers thought he would be very clever. “If I pour a bottle of water in, instead of wine. No one will notice it, ” he said to himself, “because there will be so much excellent wine in the barrel that the water will be lost in it.
