The Lion, The Ass, And The Fox

---

The Lion, the Ass, and the Fox went out to hunt. They caught a large number of animals, and the Lion told the Ass to divide them up. The Ass divided them into three equal parts and said: “Now, take them!”

The Lion grew angry, ate up the Ass, and told the Fox to divide them up anew. The Fox collected them all into one heap, and left a small bit for herself. The Lion looked at it and said:

“Clever Fox! Who taught you to divide so well?”

She said:

“What about that Ass?”
