      The Astronomer


There was an Astronomer who always used to go out at night and observe the stars.

One evening, as he was wandering with his whole attention fixed on the sky, he fell accidentally into a deep well.

While he shouted and cried loudly, and asked for help, a neighbor ran to the well, to see what had happened, He said: "Hey you, old fellow, why, are you trying to search what is in heaven, do you not manage to see what is on earth?'
