A FARMER, who bore a grudge¹ against a Fox for robbing his poultry
yard, caught him at last, and being determined² to take an ample
revenge, tied some rope well soaked in oil to his tail, and set
it on fire. The Fox by a strange fatality³ rushed to the fields
of the Farmer who had captured him. It was the time of the wheat
harvest; but the Farmer reaped nothing that year and returned
home grieving sorely.
