A FOX, running before the hounds, came across a Woodcutter
felling an oak and begged him to show him a safe hiding-place.
The Woodcutter advised him to take shelter in his own hut, so the
Fox crept in and hid himself in a corner.
The huntsman soon came
up with his hounds and inquired of the Woodcutter if he had seen
the Fox.
He declared that he had not seen him, and yet pointed,
all the time he was speaking, to the hut where the Fox lay
hidden.
The huntsman took no notice of the signs, but believing
his word, hastened forward in the chase.
As soon as they were
well away, the Fox departed without taking any notice of the
Woodcutter:
whereon he called to him and reproached him, saying,
"You ungrateful fellow, you owe your life to me, and yet you
leave me without a word of thanks."
The Fox replied, "Indeed, I
should have thanked you fervently if your deeds had been as good
as your words, and if your hands had not been traitors to your
speech."
