Some Boys were playing one day at the edge of a pond in which lived a family of Frogs. But instead of thinking, he dropped his bone and sprang at the Dog in the river, only to find himself swimming for dear life to reach the shore. What foolishness, cried one, to walk when they might as well ride. What in the world were you doing all last summer? Pull them out and I'll divide them between us. It was a terrible battle. They persuaded the Dogs to go away, and that very evening the Wolves had the grandest feast of their lives.
A knave's hypocrisy is easily seen through.
