The milk maid
One day a milk maid was carrying milk to the market. She fell in day-dreaming. She thought she would buy eggs with the money she got after selling the milk. The eggs would give her a large number of chickens. The chickens would fetch her a fair price. Then she would buy a fine silk dress for her. Most of the young men would like to marry her. But she would toss her head. Just then the pail of milk fell down. All her plans ended in smoke.
Moral - 
Do not count your chickens before they are hatched.
