Vom faulen Töpfer und dem fleißigen Wäscher

A lazy potter is annoyed by the presence of the hard-working washerman. He makes sure that the king orders the washerman to wash a gray elephant white. The washerman sees through the bad intention and demands a pot in which he can wash the elephant. The lazy potter fails in this task and his attempt on the washerman's life is his own undoing.
