Recording by Mary The Aesop for Children by Aesop The Old Lion A lion had grown very old.
His teeth were worn away.
His limbs could no longer bear him.
and the king of beasts was very pitiful indeed as he lay gasping on the ground about to die where now his strength and his former graceful beauty now a boar spied him and rushing at him gored him with his yellow tusk a bull trampled him with his heavy hoofs
even a contemptible ass let fly his heels and braid his insults in the face of the lion it is cowardly to attack the defenseless though he be an enemy the fox and the pheasants one moonlight evening
As Mr. Fox was taking his usual stroll in the woods, he saw a number of pheasants perched quite out of his reach on the limb of a tall old tree.
The sly fox soon found a bright patch of moonlight where the pheasants could see him clearly.
There he raised himself up on his hind legs and began a wild dance.
First he whirled round and round like a top.
Then he hopped up and down.
cutting all sorts of strange capers the pheasants stared giddily they hardly dared blink for fear of losing him out of their sight a single instant now the fox made as if to climb a tree now he fell over and laid still playing dead and the next instant he was hopping on all fours his back in the air
and his bushy tail shaking so that it seemed to throw out silver sparks in the moonlight by this time the poor bird's heads were in a whirl and when the fox began his performance all over again so dazed did they become that they lost their hold on the limb and fell down one by one to the fox
too much attention to danger may cause us to fall victims to it two travelers and a bear two men were traveling in company through a forest when all at once a huge bear crashed out of the brush near them one of the men thinking of his own safety climbed a tree
the other unable to fight the savage beast alone threw himself on the ground and lay still as if he were dead he had heard that a bear will not touch a dead body it must have been true for the bear snuffed at the man's head awhile and then seeming to be satisfied that he was dead walked away the man in the tree climbed down
It looked just as if that bear whispered in your ear, he said.
