The Wind and the Sun Aesop The wind and the sun once had a dispute over which was the stronger of the two. They saw a traveller coming down the road. And Sun said, “Here is our chance to prove who is right. Whichever of us can make that man took off his coat shall be declared the winner.” “Agreed,” wind said. “And just to prove to you how sure I am of my strength,” Sun said, “I will let you have the first chance.” So Sun hid behind a cloud and Wind blew and blew until it became cold and the traveller wrapped his coat tighter around him. The harder Wind blew, the tighter the man held on to his flopping coat and hat. At last the Wind gave up in disgust. The Sun came out from his hiding place and began to shine down upon the traveller. The traveller felt the sun’s warmth, and as the sun shone brighter, the man grew warmer and warmer. He began to loosen his coat. Finally, he was forced to take off his hat, his coat and his shirt. He sat down under the shade of the tree and began to fan himself with his hat. “See?” Sun said in triumph. Wind sadly bowed his head and moved away greatly ashamed.
