  2. There was a fox once and a cat met him. The day was very warm and they sat down beside a tree. They sat there for a while until the fox heard the bark of the hounds. The fox asked the cat had he many tricks the cat said that one trick. The fox said that he had a lot of tricks. When the hounds came the cat ran up the tree. The hounds ran after the fox and killed him. The cat said to himself "I see that one good trick is better than a lot of bad tricks."
