One day a Stag came to a Sheep and asked her to lend him a measure of wheat. For dinner the Fox served soup, But it was set out in a very shallow dish, and all the Stork could do was to wet the very tip of his bill. Look at my wings. This wheat is now ready for reaping, said the Farmer. As she walked along, her pretty head was busy with plans for the days to come. So one evening when the flock started home from the pasture and his mother called, the Kid paid no heed and kept right on nibbling the tender grass. Put your mouths close to my ears while you tell me the facts. But when he came back and saw how many of the flock had been killed and carried off, he knew how foolish to trust a Wolf.
Do not trust alone to outward appearances.
