sharing it with me.
Fox: It’s nothing. I’m just glad you like it. But don’t you think it’s too
crowded in here It was fine when I was alone. Now it’s too small.
Goat: I’m sorry. Should I get out now
Fox: No, it’s okay. I’ve had enough water for today. I’ll be leaving now. You
can drink some more.
Goat: Thank you, Fox. You are too kind.
Fox: Keep drinking. I’ll just jump on your back and climb out now.
The Fox steps on the Goat’s back and swiftly get out of the well.
Fox: Thank goodness. I’m out.
Goat: (echoing voice from the well ) Are you there, Fox I am finished
drinking. I want to get out now. Help me up, please.
Fox: I’m sorry, Goat. I can’t help you. If I do, I might fall in again. The Fox
and the Goat The Fox and the Goat
Goat: Please help me out. I’m not thirsty anymore. And it’s getting dark in
here.
Fox: That’s too bad, Goat. You should have thought of way out before. Next
time, think before you act, okay I’m busy. I must be going.
Goat: Don’t leave me here alone, Fox! I’m afraid. How can I get out by myself
Fox: Trick another foolish animal like yourself. Good luck. Good-bye.
