(ii) The fox in a well


Once upon a time, a fox fell into a well accidently. She was very upset thinking how will she get out of the place. Soon, a goat comes near the well. She looked inside and found the fox there. The goat asked the fox, “Is the water, sweet?”


The fox was clever, she answered, “Yes, sister, it is very sweet. I have already drank a lot”.


On hearing this, the goat also wished to drink the sweet water. She asked fox, if she will help her get in the well also. The fox became very happy and offered her help. The fox dragged the goat inside the well and herself climbed out of the well.


The goat became sad on becoming a fool and remembered her mother’s advice to not trust anybody.
