The Fox And The Monkey
Aesop Fable: The Fox And The Monkey
A monkey once danced in an assembly of the Beasts, and
so pleased them all by his performance that they elected
him their King.
A Fox, envying him the honor, discovered a
piece of meat lying in a trap, and leading the Monkey to
the place where it was, said that she had found a store, but
had not used it, she had kept it for him as treasure trove of
his kingdom, and counseled him to lay hold of it.
The Monkey
approached carelessly and was caught in the trap; and
on his accusing the Fox of purposely leading him into the
snare, she replied, "O Monkey, and are you, with such a
mind as yours, going to be King over the Beasts?"
