Mercury & the Tradesmen | Aesop's Fables



Photo by Planet Volumes



When Jupiter was creating man, he told Mercury to make an infusion of lies, and to add a little of it to the other ingredients which went to the making of the tradesmen.


Mercury did so, and introduced an equal amount into each in turn – the tallow chandler, and the greengrocer, and the haberdasher, and al, till he came to the horse dealer, who was last on the list, when, finding that he had a quantity of the infusion still left, he put it all into him. This is why all tradesmen lie more or less, but they none of them lie like a horse dealer.
