狗、公雞和狐貍(the dog,the cock and the fox)
a dog and a cock were good friends and they were traveling together. when night came on, the cock flew up to a tree and slept there, and the dog found a hollow in the same tree and slept in it. when the morning came, the cock woke up and began to crow. a hungry fox heard this crow and wanted to get the cock for his dinner. then the fox said to the cock, “what a beautiful morning this is! i want to talk to you. you have a very sweet voice. won’t you come down and have a chat with me?” “thank you, mr. fox. but how about your coming up here? it is very nice and cool here,” replied the cock. “all right, i will. but how can i get up?” asked the fox. “just go round the trunk below me, and wake my servant in a hollow. he will open the door for you,” said the cock. the fox came near the hollow. and the dog rushed out, sprang upon the fox and killed it at once.
