THE FOX AND THE GOAT

A Fox fell into a well, and though it was not very deep, he found that he could not get out
(a fox fel into a wel, en foud it was not very dip, ji faun dad ji culd not get aut egein)
again.

After he had been in the well a long time, a thirsty Goat came by.
(After ji jad bin in de wel alon taim, a zersti gout queim bai)

The Goat thought the Fox had gone down to drink, and so he asked if the water was good.
(De gout foud de fox jad gon daunt u drink, end sou hi ask if de warer was gud)

"The finest in the whole country," said the crafty Fox, "jump in and try it. There is more
(“De faines in de jol country”, sed de crafti fox, “yamp in en trai it. Der is mor

than enough for both of us."

(dan inof for bouf of as”)

The thirsty Goat immediately jumped in and began to drink. The Fox jumped on the Goat's
(De zersti gout inmidiatli jamp in en bigan tu drink. De fox yamp on de gouts)

back and leaped from the tip of the Goat's horns out of the well.
(bak en lip from de tip of the gouts jorns aut of de wel.)

The Goat begged the Fox to help him out. But the Fox was already on his way to the woods.
(De gout beg de fox tu help jim aut. Bat de Fox was olrredi on jis wei tu de wuds)

"If you had as much sense as you have beard you would have been more cautious about finding a
(If iu jad as mach sens as iu jaf bierd iu wuld jaf bin mor caushios abaut faindin a)

way to get out again before you jumped in."

(wei tu get aut egein bifor iu yamp in)

THE DONKEY IN THE LION’S SKIN

A Donkey once found a Lion's skin which the hunters had left out in the sun to dry. He put it on
(A donki uans faun a Laions eskin wich de janters jad lef aut in de san tu drai. Ji put it on)

and went towards his native village. All fled at his approach, both men and animals, and he was a
(En went towars jis neitif vilash. Ol fled at jis aprouch, bouf men en enimols, en ji was a)

proud Donkey that day. In his delight he lifted up his voice and brayed, but then every one knew
(praud donki dad dei. In jis dilait ji lif ap jis vois end breid, bat den evri uan niu)

him, and his owner came up and gave him a sound cudgelling for the fright he had caused. And
(jim, end jis ouner keim ap en geif jim a saun cudguelin for de frait ji jad cosd. End)

shortly afterwards a Fox came up to him and said: "Ah, I knew you by your voice."
(shorthli afterwards a fox keim ap tu jim end sed: “Ah ai niu iu bai iur vois.”)
