One bright evening as the sun was sinking on a glorious world a wise old Cock flew into a tree to roost. The Wolf! exclaimed the Sheep indignantly. He then very carefully divided the Stag into four equal parts. I am so strong I can carry away an Ostrich in my talons as if it were a feather! An old Frog living in the marsh, trembled as he watched the fierce battle. The Eagle could not reach the Serpent, neither with beak nor claws. The Fisherman was about to put it in his basket when the little Fish said: Please spare me, Mr. Fisherman! But I am not a Mouse! cried the Bat. My father was an Ass after all.
Foolish curiosity and vanity often lead to misfortune.
