Скорпион и лягушка

Однажды скорпион сказал лягушке: « Мне нужно перебраться на другой берег реки. Не могла бы ты отвести меня туда?» «Никогда!»  — сказала лягушка. — Ты скорпион! Ты ужалишь меня, и я умру. «Я не умею плавать, — сказал скорпион, — если ты умрешь, я тоже умру». Лягушка немного подумала, а потом согласилась отвести скорпиона на другой берег реки. Итак, скорпион забрался на спину лягушке , и они поплыли через реку. Когда они были на полпути, лягушку ужалил скорпион. "Что ты наделал?" закричала лягушка. «Мне очень жаль, — сказал скорпион. — Ты была права. Я скорпион. И это то, что я делаю». Так что ни один из них не добрался до другого берега реки.
