De Alexandro Magno et asini domino

De Alexandro Magno et asini domino callido
Aliquando oraculum, Alexandrum Magnum, Macedoniae regem, sic monuisse dicitur: "Necari iube eum, qui tibi in urbis porta primus occuret!". Alexandro vir pauper, qui asinum agebat, obviam venit. Alexander oraculo obtemperans virum interfici, iussit. "Cur me, domine, morte punire desideras?" vir interrogat. Alexander ei oraculi, praeceptum enarrat. Tum vir callidus: "Oraculi praeceptum non explicas recte: asinus meus tibi primus occurrit, eum interficere debes". Placuit regi callidum responsum viri et asinum pro homine morti destinavit.
