Modernized ass learns too much clover in pasture

A moral tale from New York about an ass and a horse sharing a barn. The ass, jealous of the horse’s sleek coat, seeks unlimited clover to fatten himself, ignores the horse’s warnings, and soon overeats. He swells, bursts, and dies, illustrating the moral to avoid excess and folly.
