I feel sure your voice must surpass that of  other birds, just as your figure does; let me hear but one  song from you that I may greet you as the Queen of Birds.’  The Crow lifted up her head and began to caw her best, but  the moment she opened her mouth the piece of cheese fell  to the ground, only to be snapped up by Master Fox. ‘That  will do,’ said he. ‘That was all I wanted. In exchange for your  cheese I will give you a piece of advice for the future .’ ' Do not trust flatterers.’ 2.The Fox and the Stork At one time the Fox and the Stork were on visiting terms  and ...
