A Lion, an Ass, and a Fox were hunting in company, and caught a large quantity of game. The Ass was to go into the cave and drive the Goats out, while the Lion would stand at the entrance to strike them down.

The Fox immediately had rosy visions of a very delicious breakfast. They were so taken up with admiration of the Elephant, that the Rat was not noticed. Then after long preparation of the Mouse army in all the arts of war, they sent a challenge to the Weasels. He cannot fool us again, they said. And that was all the sympathy the poor Mouse got.
