The Fox and The Crow

One day there was a fox that saw a Crow flying off with a piece of cheese in its beak and settle
comfortably on a branch of a tree.

     “That’s my food, because I am a Fox,” Master Reynard said, while he was going to the foot of
the tree.

     “Good day, Mistress Crow,” he greeted. “How beautiful you are looking today: how glossy
your softy feathers; how bright your sharp eye. I feel sure your voice must surpass that all of
other birds, just as your figure does; let me enjoy one song from you that I may greet you as the
Queen of Birds.”

     The Crow lifted up her head and croaked her best, but the moment she opened her mouth the
piece of cheese fell down to the ground, and directly snapped up by Master Fox.

     “That will do,” he said. “That was all I really wanted. As the substitution for your cheese I
will give you a piece of wise advice for the future: “Do not trust liars.”
