Answer:

A Fox fell into a deep well from which he could not get out. A Goat passed by shortly afterwards, and asked the Fox what he was doing down there.

“Oh, have you not heard?” said the Fox; “there is going to be a great drought, so I jumped down here in order to be sure to have water by me. Why don’t you come down too?”

The Goat thought well of this advice, and jumped down into the well.

The Fox immediately jumped on her back, and by putting his foot on her long horns managed to jump up to the edge of the well. “Good-bye, friend,” said the Fox, “if you had brains equal to the number of hairs in your beard you would not have jumped down without a way back up.”

Aesop For Children

Milo Winter (1919)

A Fox fell into a well, and though it was not very deep, he found that he could not get out again. After he had been in the well a long time, a thirsty Goat came by. The Goat thought the Fox had gone down to drink, and so he asked if the water was good.

“The finest in the whole country,” said the crafty Fox, “jump in and try it. There is more than enough for both of us.”

The thirsty Goat immediately jumped in and began to drink. The Fox just as quickly jumped on the Goat’s back and leaped from the tip of the Goat’s horns out of the well.

The foolish Goat now saw what a plight he had got into, and begged the Fox to help him out. But the Fox was already on his way to the woods.

“If you had as much sense as you have beard, old fellow,” he said as he ran, “you would have been more cautious about finding a way to get out again before you jumped in.”

Moral

Look before you leap.

Townsend version

A fox one day fell into a deep well and could find no means of escape. A Goat, overcome with thirst, came to the same well, and seeing the Fox, inquired if the water was good. Concealing his sad plight under a merry guise, the Fox indulged in a lavish praise of the water, saying it was excellent beyond measure, and encouraging him to descend. The Goat, mindful only of his thirst, thoughtlessly jumped down, but just as he drank, the Fox informed him of the difficulty they were both in and suggested a scheme for their common escape. “If,” said he, “you will place your forefeet upon the wall and bend your head, I will run up your back and escape, and will help you out afterwards.” The Goat readily assented and the Fox leaped upon his back. Steadying himself with the Goat’s horns, he safely reached the mouth of the well and made off as fast as he could. When the Goat upbraided him for breaking his promise, he turned around and cried out, “You foolish old fellow! If you had as many brains in your head as you have hairs in your beard, you would never have gone down before you had inspected the way up, nor have exposed yourself to dangers from which you had no means of escape.”

Moral

Look before you leap.

Explanation:

Once there was a fox who fell into an abandoned well. Since the well was a bit deep, he couldn't get out, much as he tried. He began to get impatient and even hopeless, thinking about his death by starvation.

Then suddenly came a goat who was looking for water, saw that the fox was in the well. Not thinking further, the goat asked the fox why he was in the well and if there is any water to quench his thirst. The fox, being clever, told the goat that there is indeed plenty of water for the both of them to fill their thirst. At this, the goat impulsively jumped into the dry, empty well.

Then the fox further revealed his plan on how they could escape. He told the goat that since he was lighter, he'll climb out of the well if the goat will act as a helper. Then when he gets out, he will bring a rope to pull the goat out. The goat agreed and helped the fox get out, heaving him up his horns. But once outside, the fox ran away and never returned, leaving the foolish goat alone.

The moral of the story is

Never do things on an impulse. Always have second thoughts.
