The Wasps protested loudly. So said, so done, and both slept very comfortably. This performance she went through several times, each time singeing her paw severely. Why, exclaimed the Wolf proudly, see how big I am! They had not gone ten paces before the Earthen Pot cracked, and at the next jolt he flew into a thousand pieces.
A possession is worth no more than the use we make of it.
