A Bald Knight1, who wore a wig2, went out to hunt. A sudden puff3 of wind blew off his hat and wig, at which a loud laugh rang forth4 from his companions. He joined in the joke by saying: "What marvel5 that hairs which are not mine should fly from me, when my own have forsaken6 even the man with whom they were born."
Those who cannot take care of their own, should not be entrusted7 with the care of another's property.
