The Old Woman and the Wine Jar

An old woman saw an empty wine jar lying on the ground. Though not a drop of the wine with which it had been filled, remained, it still yielded a grateful fragrance to the passersby. The old woman, applying her nose as close as she could and snuffing with all her might, exclaimed, "Sweet creature! How charming must your contents once have been, when the very dregs are so delicious!"
