Le Chêne et le Roseau

The Oak and the Reed is a famous fable by Jean de La Fontaine. It tells the story of two trees: a very proud oak and a reed of extreme wisdom who face each other. In this fable, the wind appears as a third character who arbitrates the conflict between the two trees and brings the moral to the story in an implicit way, unlike the one in the fable The Wolf and the Lamb.
