The Fox and the Goat

Once a fox accidentally fell into a well. She tried many times to come out of the well, but all in vain. She thought, “How do I get out of here”? Just then a goat was passing by the well. She stopped and peeped into the well. She asked the fox, “Is water sweet there ?” The fox was cunning. It sweet! I have had so much. I might faint.” The goat was eager to taste the water. She told the fox to help her come inside the well. The fox was waiting for the same. It held her and came out of the well. The goat had fallen inside the well. The fox thanked the goat and went on. The goat was helpless. She remembered what her mother used to say, “Be careful how you take the people’s advice you don’t know.”
