A 



T one time the Fox and the Stork were 

 on visiting terms and seemed very 

 good friends. So the Fox invited the Stork 



to dinner, and for a joke 

 put nothing before her but 

 some soup in a very shallow 

 dish. This the Fox could 

 easily lap up, but the Stork 

 could only wet the end of 

 her long bill in it, and left 

 the meal as hungry as when 

 she began. " I am sorry, " 

 said the Fox, cc the soup is 

 not to your liking."
