Once upon a time a Cat and a Monkey lived as pets in the same house. Now the Bat family had not openly joined either side. From this he took a very small portion for himself, such undesirable bits as the horns and hoofs of a mountain goat, and the end of an ox tail. To each one he showed an axe of gold, and each one eagerly claimed it to be the one he had lost. Do not on any account part with the estate that has belonged to our family for so many generations. There was a sudden rush of great wings. He found the Dog in his master's yard, and asked him to come out and be eaten. The hungry but unsuspecting Fox, went around the tree as he was told, and in a twinkling the Dog had seized him.
Greediness leads to misfortune.
