[交流] The Old Woman and the Wine-Jar, what is the meaning of this fable?

The Old Woman and the Wine-Jar

You must know that sometimes old women like a glass of wine. One
of this sort once found a Wine-jar lying in the road, and eagerly went up to
it hoping to find it full. But when she took it up she found that all the
wine had been drunk out of it. Still she took a long sniff at the mouth of
the Jar. "Ah," she cried,

"What memories cling 'round the instruments of our pleasure."


this is a fable, what is the meaning of it? let's talk about it!
