Aesop's Fox

One summer morning, Fox awakens and begins his search for food.His travels take him to a vineyard, where the unreachable grapes are probably sour, and to a conversation with Rooster and Crow, during which flattery first fails but then succeeds.Fox meets--among others--foolish Donkey, wise Boar, vain Leopard, and shrewd Lion.With each meeting, Fox gains wisdom--until at the end of the day, falling asleep in the hollow of a tree, he says, 'Time fixes everything.' And so it does.
