Read the poem the fox and the Grapes. Fill in the blanks with the correct nouns from the box.
One summer's day a fox was passing through
An _________; faint he was and hungry, too.
When suddenly his keen eye chanced to fall
Upon a _______ of grapes above the wall.
‘Ha! just the thing!’ he said. ‘Who could resist it?’
He eyed the purple _______ – jumped – and missed it.
‘Ahem!’ he coughed. ‘I’|| take more careful aim.’
And sprang again. _______ were much the same,
Although his leaps were desperate and high.
At length he paused to wipe a tearful eye,
And shrug a ________ ‘ I am not so dry,
And lunch is bound to come within the _______ . . .
Besides,’ he said, ‘I’m sure those group are sour.’
The _________ is: We somehow want the peach
That always dangle just beyond our _____________;
Until we learn never to be upset
With what we find too difficult to get.
