- The dispute between the Wind and the Sun was about which one was the stronger of the two.
- The Wind said to the Sun, "Do you see that traveler plodding along the road? Let us both try our strength on him, and let the one who can first strip him of his cloak be the winner."
- To prove its strength, the Wind blew a blast that sent leaves flying, raised dust, bent tree tops, and even tore up an oak by the roots.
- The Sun tried its strength by bursting out from behind a cloud and darting its sultry beams upon the traveler’s head and back until the heat became unbearable.
- The Wind never claimed again that it was stronger than the Sun.
