A fir-tree was boasting to a bramble and said.
"Now look at me. I am useful for all sorts of things.
for example, I am everywhere used for hall's roof or large ship.
And I am straight and tall. It makes me look very beautiful.
Definitely, I am a great fir-tree.
… Oh?
Look at you growing on my foot, you mere thorny bramble. Everyone doesn't like you.
I have a question. What is special about you?"
The bramble answered.
"You are right. I have nothing special, but..."
"But what?"
"Oh, here, look!
Here comes a man with an ax.
He is coming straight toward us, isn’t he?
What does he want from us?
Well, I am a disliked thorny bramble. So he may need something from you, not me.
I guess being a star must be hard.

What's the matter with you all of a sudden?
You look you are shivering without wind."
