Answer:
A fox that was being chased by huntsmen begged a woodcutter to shelter him. The
woodcutter directed him into his cottage, and when the huntsmen arrived they
asked the woodcutter if a fox had chanced that way.
“I saw no fox today,” said the woodcutter, but he pointed at the same time with
his finger to the spot where the fox was hiding. The huntsmen did not take the hint.
However, the fox saw what the woodcutter did
as he was looking out through a crack in the
cottage door.
When the fox-hunters had gone away, the fox
stole quietly out into the open, and was about to
clear off without a word to the woodcutter. “You
ungrateful beast,” said the man angrily. “You
were about to leave without a word of thanks!
Have you no manners?”
The fox paused and then said: “If you had been
as honest with your finger as you were with your
tongue, I should not have gone without bidding
you goodbye!” And off he trotted towards his den.
