One upon a time a lion and a bear
caught and killed a goat. They had a quarrel over it.
“It is mine,” said the bear. “I
caught it with my strong paws.”
“It is not yours. It is mine,” said
the lion. “I killed it with my strong jaws.”
Then they began to fight over it.
They ran up and down the hill, under and over the fallen trees, in and out of
the forest. They bit and scratched with their strength, but no one could
overcome the other.
At last they both were tired out and
could fight no longer. They lay upon the ground, panting and looking at each
other.
A fox who was passing by at the time
saw them with a dead goat near by. She ran up to them, took the goat home and
ate it up.
