The Fox and The Crow

One day, a Fox once saw a Crow fly off with a piece of cheese in its beak and later
settle on a branch of a tree.
"That's for me, as I am a Fox," said Master Reynard, and he walked up to the foot of the tree
from time to time.
"Good day, Mistress Crow," he cried. "How well you are looking today: how glossy your
feathers; how bright your eye today. I feel sure your voice must surpass that of other birds, just
as your figure does; let me hear but one song from you that I may greet you as the Queen of
Birds for the rest of years."
Immediately, the Crow lifted up her head after a while and began to caw her best, but the
moment she opened her mouth the piece of cheese fell to the ground, only to be snapped up by
Master Fox right away.
"That will do," said he. "That was all I wanted in a little while. In exchange for your cheese
I will give you a piece of advice for the future: "Do not trust flatterers immediately."
