　　“Why are you sad?” asked the ant.

　　“I’m the prisoner of a giant.” the girl told the ant. “ He won’t let me go until I’ve made three separate heaps of grain, barley（大麦）and rye（黑麦）out of this huge pile of seeds in which they are all mixed together.”

　　“That will take you a month!” the ant said, looking at the huge pile of seeds.

　　“I know,” the girl cried, “and if I haven’t finished by tomorrow, the giant will eat me for his supper!”

　　“Don’t cry,” the ant said, “my friends and I will help you.”
