The Wolf could not help thinking how nice it would be to have a fine fat Dog to eat instead of the scrawny object before him.

When the weather cleared, and the Shepherd led the Goats out to feed, the Wild Goats scampered off to the hills. Now I promise you a full-grown Bull, if you but make the thief go away!
Look before you leap.
