A Dog had learned to carry his master's dinner to him every day. We can help you to see the world, said the Ducks. Can you guess who it was that our young Mouse was trying to describe to his mother? Sure enough, the Mice soon began to come out. But though he could swim a little, he did not dare risk going into the pond without some help. Oh no! Instead he gave them each a hard whack over the head with it and sent them home. He called a meeting of all the Foxes, saying that he had something of great importance to tell the tribe. Finding his Master seated at the dinner table, he kicked up his heels and, with a loud bray, pranced giddily around the table, upsetting it as he did so. And there, he who had defeated the King of beasts came to a miserable end, the prey of a little spider.
Your enemies will seize any excuse to attack you.
