The fox and the goat
An unlucky fox fell into a well. It was quite deep, so he could not get out by himself..
A goat passed by. He asked the fox what he was doing in the well. "Oh, have you not heard?" said the fox. "There is going to be a great drought, so I jumped down to get some water. Why don’t you come down here too?"
The goat believed his words, and jumped down into the well.
But the fox immediately jumped on the goat’s back and up to the edge of the well. "Good-bye, friend," said the fox. "Remember next time don’t trust the advice of a man in difficulties."

The wolf and the crane
When a wolf was eating an animal, a small bone from the meat got stuck in his throat. He could not swallow it, so he felt a terrible pain.
He ran up and down, and tried to find something to relieve the pain.
He tried to convince anyone to remove the bone. "I would give anything," he said, "if you would take it out."
At last the crane agreed to try. It told the wolf to open his mouth, and then put its long neck down the wolf’s throat.
The crane loosened the bone with its beak, and finally got it out.
"Will you kindly give me the reward?" asked the crane.
The wolf showed his teeth, and said, "Be content,you have put your head into a wolf’s mouth and taken it out again in safety. That is a great reward for you."

The wolf and the lamb
Once upon a time a wolf was lapping at a stream. When he looked up, he saw a lamb drinking a little lower down.
"There’s my supper," he thought. "I will find some excuse to catch it." Then he called out to the lamb, "How dare you muddle the water?" "No, master," said the lamb. "I cannot muddle your water because it runs down from you to me."
"Well, then," said the wolf. "Why did you call me bad names this time last year?" "It was impossible," said the lamb. "I am only six months old."
"I don’t care," shouted the wolf. "If it was not you, it must be your father." After that he rushed at the poor little lamb and ate it up.
●從前,一隻狼在溪流喝水,看到一隻小羊在下游喝水。
●“那是我的晚餐,”狼想,“我要找一個藉口吃掉他。”於是,他惡狠狠地對小羊說:“你怎麼敢攪渾濁了我的水?”“我沒有,先生,”小羊回答說,“我在下游喝水,怎麼能攪渾濁你喝的水呢?”
●“那麼,”狼見此計不成,又說道,“你去年的今天為什麼說我的壞話?”“不可能,”小羊說,“我現在才只有六個月大。”
●“我不管,”狼說,“如果不是你,就是你的爸爸。”說完,他就衝向小山羊,把他吃掉了。

The sick lion
A lion had come to the end of his days. He lay helpless under a tree.
The animals came around him. When they saw that he was going to die, they thought to themselves, "Now is the time to pay him back."
So the boar came up and rushed at him with his tusks.
Then a bull gored him with his horns. The lion still lay helpless before them.

"This is a double death." growled the lion.
