Two men beheld a beautiful Land on the other side of the River.
And both desired to dwell in that Land.
Each made use of a small boat and crossed to the other side.
When they arrived, the first man began to make his way to the Highest Mountain
to behold the beauty of this new Land.
The other man desired the same but he took the boat upon his shoulders
and began to make his way in a slow pace.
For he was a stubborn man who would not abandon his means.
The first man, who was more swift, had pity on the other.
He returned and took the second man and his boat upon his own shoulders
and made his way to the Mountain.
When they reached the summit, the first man was in awe over the beauty of the Land.
But the other man, although he too stood upon the summit,
could not behold the beauty of the Land.
For the weight of the boat upon his own head had robbed him of his sight.
