§70 尝庵婆罗果喻
(70) to taste apples
昔有一长者，遣人持钱至他园中买庵婆罗果而欲食之，而敕之言：“好甜美者，汝当买来。”
once upon a time, there was an elderly man who sent a servant to buy him some apples. he gave him orders as follows, "you'll buy some good and sweet apples for me."
即便持钱往买其果。果主言：“我此树果，悉皆美好，无一恶者。汝尝一果，足以知之。”
the servant then went on an errand with money. the owner of the apple orchard said to him, "all my apples are good and sweet: there is not a single bad one. you'll know it when you taste one."
买果者言：“我今当一一尝之，然后当取。若但尝一，何以可知？”寻即取果一一皆尝。持来归家，长者见已，恶而不食，便一切都弃。
the servant said, "i'll buy some after i taste every single one of them. how do i know about the rest. if i only taste one?" after tasting them one by one, he bought the apples. the master did not like the sight of all these half-eaten apples and he threw them all out.
