| 204. The Dog, The Cock, And The Fox A Dog and a Cock, being grea t friends, agreed to travel together. At nightfall they took shelter in a thick wood. The Cock, flying up, perched himself on the branches of a tree, while the Dog found a bed beneath in the hollow trunk. When the morning dawned, the Cock, as usual, crowed very loudly several times. A Fox hearing the sound, and wishing to make a breakfast on him, came and stood under the branches, saying how earnestly he desired to make the acquai ntance of the owner of so magnificent a voice. The Cock, suspecting his civilities, said: "Sir, I wish you would do me the favour to go round to the hollow trunk below me, and wake up my porter, that he may open the door, and let you i n." On the Fox approaching the tree, the Dog sprang out and caught him, and tore him in pieces. | 204. 狗、公鸡和狐狸 一只狗和一只公鸡非常要好，相约一同去旅行。 到了晚上，它们就住宿在一座森林里。 公鸡飞了上去，高高栖息在树枝上，狗便在底下树干的空洞里找到它安眠的地方。 天色渐明，公鸡照往常一样，高声地啼叫几次。 一只狐狸听见这声音，就想去捉它来当早餐，它走来站在树底下，说它非常愿意和这雄壮声音的主人结为朋友。 公鸡看它太客气，便说道：「先生，我很诚挚接受你的赏光，可否绕到我底下的空树干那里，叫醒我的门房，那样它便会开口让你进来。」 那只狐狸走近树干，狗跳了出来，就将它捉住，撕成碎片。 |
