Chichi: Oh. once a story of a travellers and purse

Story: Travellers And Purse Two men were traveling in company along the road when one of them picked up a well-filled purse. “How lucky I am!“ he said. “I have found a purse. Judging by its weight it must be full of gold.“ “Do not say 'I have found a purse,'“ said his companion. “Say rather 'we have found a purse' and 'how lucky we are.' Travelers ought to share alike the fortunes or misfortunes of the road.“ “No, no,“ replied the other angrily. “I found it and I am going to keep it.“ Just then they heard a shout of “Stop, thief!“ and looking around, saw a mob of people armed with clubs coming down the road. The man who had found the purse fell into a panic. “We are lost if they find the purse on us,“ he cried. “No, no,“ replied the other, “You would not say 'we' before, so now stick to your 'I'. Say 'I am lost.'“ We can not expect any one to share our misfortunes unless we are willing to share our good fortune also.

Descriptions from life indicate the body and head were ash grey, and the white part of the tail had two dark central feathers. In contrast, descriptions based on stuffed specimens state that the body was brown and the head bluish but do not mention the dark central tail feathers. This may be due to the specimens having changed colour as a result of aging and exposure to light, as well as other forms of damage. Very little is known about the bird in life. The Mascarene parrot was first mentioned in 1674, and live specimens were later brought to Europe, where they lived in captivity . The species was scientifically described in 1771. Only two stuffed specimens exist today, in Paris and Vienn...
