"That question is what your Majesty might call foxy," said one of the counselors, an old grey fox.

After spying for a while, the Lion saw one, but by that time the Grey Fox was asleep alongside of him.

Then the Grey Fox said: “Let us see whether you can get the best of me, and which of us can catch a rabbit first.”

At sunrise the Lion took a position facing the north, and the Grey Fox faced south, and both of them watched for rabbits.

Then the Grey Fox opened the bag, and out came the two fierce dogs; and they caught the Coyote and bit him and tore him to pieces.
