THE WOLF AND THE FOX.

I.

Preparation.

A wolf made a fox get his food for him. He made him take food from farmers’ yards and houses.

What kind of food would a wolf find in a farmer’s yard?

Narration.

AT THE FARMYARD.

Once upon a time a wolf caught a fox and kept him as a servant. Whatever the wolf said, the fox must do. One day they were going through a forest and the wolf said to the fox, “Get me some food or I will eat you.” The fox said, “I know a farmyard where there are two young lambs which, if you wish, I will fetch for you?” This pleased the wolf very much. They went to the farmyard and the fox, slipping slyly into the yard, stole a fine young lamb and brought it to the wolf.
