A foolish young heir, who had just taken possession of his wise father's estate, had all the hedges surrounding his vineyard torn out because they did not bear any grapes. By tearing down these fences, however, he lay his grounds open to man and beast alike and all his vines were soon destroyed. So the simple fellow learned too late that he cannot expect to gather grapes from brambles and that it is just as important to protect a vineyard as to possess it.
