    An ass finds a lion's skin that hunters had left out to dry. He puts it on to disguise himself and scare the other animals in his village. However, when he brays, the other animals recognize him and his owner beats him for frightening everyone. A fox then tells the ass he recognized him by his voice, showing that disguises can't hide one's true nature.

    Aesops Fables

    The Ass in the Lions Skin

    An Ass once found a Lions skin which the

    hunters had left out in the sun to dry. He put it on

    and went towards his native village. All fled at

    his approach, both men and animals, and he was

    a proud Ass that day. In his delight he lifted up

    his voice and brayed, but then every one knew

    him, and his owner came up and gave him a

    sound cudgelling for the fright he had caused.

    And shortly afterwards a Fox came up to him and

    said: Ah, I knew you by your voice.

    Fine clothes may disguise, but silly words

    will disclose a fool.
