The wolf kept the fox with him. Whatever the wolf wanted, the fox had to do. The fox was small and weak. He wished he could leave his big master behind. One day, they walked through the forest. The wolf looked at the fox and said, "Red-fox, get me something to eat, or I will eat you!" The fox was scared. He thought for a moment. Then he said, "I know a farm with two little lambs. If you are gentle, we can bring one home." The wolf liked that idea. They went to the farm. The fox was very clever. He stole a small lamb and brought it to the wolf. The wolf ate the lamb, but he was still hungry. He wanted the other lamb, too. So, he went back to get it.

But the wolf was so clumsy that the mother lamb heard him. She cried out very loud. The farmers ran to help her. They found the wolf and hit him very hard. The wolf went to the fox limping and crying. "You tricked me well," he said. "I wanted to get the other lamb, but the farmers caught me and beat me up." The fox replied, "Why are you so greedy?" The next day, they went to the farm again. The wolf said, "Red-fox, get me food, or I will eat you." The fox answered, "I know a house where the wife is baking pancakes tonight. We will get some for ourselves.

They crept closer and the fox slipped around the house. He peeked and sniffed until he found the dish. Then he snatched six pancakes and carried them to the wolf. "Here is something for you to eat," he said. Then he went on his way. The wolf swallowed the pancakes in a flash. "They make me want more," he said. So he went back and tore the whole dish down. It broke into pieces with a loud crash. The noise was so big that the woman came out. When she saw the wolf, she called the people. They ran there quickly and beat him with their sticks. They beat him until he ran away with two sore legs, howling loudly. He went back to the fox in the forest. "You tricked me so badly," he cried. "The farmers caught me and they will make my skin into a coat.

But the fox asked, "Why are you so hungry?" On the third day, they went out together. The wolf could only limp along slowly and painfully. He said, "Red Fox, get me something to eat, or I will eat you myself." The fox answered, "I know a man who has been killing animals. The salted meat is lying in a barrel in the cellar. We will get that." Said the wolf, "I will go when you do, so you can help me if I am not able to get away." "I am willing," said the fox. She showed him the quiet paths until they reached the cellar. There was meat in abundance, and the wolf attacked it instantly. He thought, "There is plenty of time before I need leave off.

The fox liked it too, but he kept looking around. He ran back to the hole they had come through to see if his body was still small enough to squeeze through. The wolf asked, "Dear fox, why are you running back and forth so much? Why do you jump in and out?" "I have to make sure no one is coming," the clever fox replied. "Please don't eat too much." Then the wolf said, "I am not going anywhere until this barrel is empty." Just then, the farmer heard the fox jumping around and walked into the cellar. When the fox saw him, he jumped out of the hole in one big bound. The wolf tried to follow him, but he had eaten so much that he was too big to fit through. He got stuck fast.

Then the farmer came with a big stick and hit the wolf. The wolf went to sleep forever. But the fox ran fast into the forest. He was so happy to be free from the greedy wolf.

    "The wolf had the fox with him, and whatsoever the wolf wished, that the fox was compelled to do, for he was the weaker, and he would gladly have been rid of his master. It chanced that once as they were going through the forest, the wolf said, red-fox, get me something to eat, or else I will eat you yourself. Then the fox answered, I know a farm-yard where there are two young lambs. If you are inclined, we will fetch one of them. That suited the wolf, and they went thither, and the fox stole the little lamb, took it to the wolf, and went away. The wolf devoured it, but was not satisfied with one. He wanted the other as well, and went to get it. But as he did it so clumsily, the mother of the little lamb heard him, and began to cry out terribly, and to bleat so that the farmers came running there. They found the wolf, and beat him so mercilessly, that he went to the fox limping and howling. You have misled me finely, said he. I wanted to fetch the other lamb, and the country folks surprised me, and have beaten me to a jelly. The fox replied, why are you such a glutton. Next day they again went into the country, and the greedy wolf once more said, red-fox, get me something to eat, or I will eat you yourself. Then answered the fox, I know a farm-house where the wife is baking pancakes to-night. We will get some of them for ourselves. They went there, and the fox slipped round the house, and peeped and sniffed about until he discovered where the dish was, and then snatched six pancakes and carried them to the wolf.

This made such a great noise that the woman came out, and when she saw the wolf she called the people, who hurried there, and beat him as long as their sticks would hold together, till with two lame legs, and howling loudly, he returned to the fox in the forest. How abominably you have misled me, cried he, the peasants caught me, and tanned my skin for me. But the fox replied, why are you such a glutton. On the third day, when they were out together, and the wolf could only limp along painfully, he again said, red-fox, get me something to eat, or I will eat your yourself.

There was meat in abundance, and the wolf attacked it instantly and thought, there is plenty of time before I need leave off. The fox liked it also, but looked about everywhere, and often ran to the hole by which they had come in, to find out if his body was still thin enough to slip through it. The wolf said, dear fox, tell me why you are running here and there so much, and jumping in and out. I must see that no one is coming, replied the crafty fellow. Don't eat too much. Then said the wolf, I shall not leave until the barrel is empty. In the meantime the farmer, who had heard the noise of the fox's jumping, came into the cellar. When the fox saw him he was out of the hole at one bound. The wolf wanted to follow him, but he had made himself so fat with eating that he could no longer get through, but stuck fast. Then came the farmer with a cudgel and struck him dead, but the fox bounded into the forest, glad to be rid of the old glutton."

Then answered the fox, I know a farm-house where the wife is baking pancakes to-night. We will get some of them for ourselves.",
    "They went there, and the fox slipped round the house, and peeped and sniffed about until he discovered where the dish was, and then snatched six pancakes and carried them to the wolf. There is something for you to eat, said he to him, and then went his way. The wolf swallowed down the pancakes in an instant, and said, they make one want more, and went thither and tore the whole dish down so that it broke in pieces. This made such a great noise that the woman came out, and when she saw the wolf she called the people, who hurried there, and beat him as long as their sticks would hold together, till with two lame legs, and howling loudly, he returned to the fox in the forest. How abominably you have misled me, cried he, the peasants caught me, and tanned my skin for me.",
    "But the fox replied, why are you such a glutton. On the third day, when they were out together, and the wolf could only limp along painfully, he again said, red fox, get me something to eat, or I will eat you yourself. The fox answered, I know a man who has been killing, and the salted meat is lying in a barrel in the cellar. We will get that. Said the wolf, I will go when you do, that you may help me if I am not able to get away. I am willing, said the fox, and showed him the by-paths and ways by which at length they reached the cellar. There was meat in abundance, and the wolf attacked it instantly and thought, there is plenty of time before I need leave off.",
    "The fox liked it also, but looked about everywhere, and often ran to the hole by which they had come in, to find out if his body was still thin enough to slip through it. The wolf said, dear fox, tell me why you are running here and there so much, and jumping in and out. I must see that no one is coming, replied the crafty fellow. do not eat too much. Then said the wolf, I shall not leave until the barrel is empty. In the meantime the farmer, who had heard the noise of the fox's jumping, came into the cellar. When the fox saw him he was out of the hole at one bound. The wolf wanted to follow him, but he had made himself so fat with eating that he could no longer get through, but stuck fast.",
    "Then came the farmer with a cudgel and struck him dead, but the fox bounded into the forest, glad to be rid of the old glutton."

It chanced that once as they were going through the forest, the wolf said, red-fox, get me something to eat, or else I will eat you yourself. Then the fox answered, I know a farm-yard where there are two young lambs. If you are inclined, we will fetch one of them. That suited the wolf, and they went thither, and the fox stole the little lamb, took it to the wolf, and went away. The wolf devoured it, but was not satisfied with one. He wanted the other as well, and went to get it.",
    "But as he did it so clumsily, the mother of the little lamb heard him, and began to cry out terribly, and to bleat so that the farmers came running there. They found the wolf, and beat him so mercilessly, that he went to the fox limping and howling. You have misled me finely, said he. I wanted to fetch the other lamb, and the country folks surprised me, and have beaten me to a jelly. The fox replied, why are you such a glutton.
