The Cat and the Fox.

As the Cat and the Fox were talking politics together, Reynard said:"Let things turn out ever so bad, he did not care, for he had a thousandtricks for them yet, before they should hurt him." "But pray," says he,"Mrs. Puss, suppose there should be an invasion, what course do youdesign to take?" "Nay," says the Cat, "I have but one shift for it, andif that won't do, I am undone." "I am sorry for you," replies Reynard,"with all my heart, and would gladly help you, but indeed, neighbor, astimes go, it is not good to trust; we must even be every one forhimself, as the saying is." These words were scarcely out of his mouth,when they were alarmed with a pack of hounds, that came upon them infull cry. The Cat, by the help of her single shift, ran up a tree, andsat securely among the top branches; from whence she beheld Reynard,who had not been able to get out of sight, overtaken with his thousandtricks, and torn in as many pieces by the dogs which had surrounded him.

A little common sense is often of more value than much cunning.
