狐狸和獅子結成了同盟。每次打獵的時候，都是狐狸在東奔西走，尋找獵物的所在地，然後由獅子親自出馬去捕捉。他們每次都是按照功勞的大小來分配獵物，獅子的那份總比狐狸的多很多。一段時間之後，狐狸開始嫉妒獅子，不願意再和獅子合作，就獨自去森林裏打獵。當他在追逐一隻山羊的時候落入了陷阱，成了獵人的獵物。
這則寓言告誡我們要量力而行。
A Fox eo parth a Lioense of bei. Eadertook his proper duty in ace with his own nature ahe Fox disd poihe prey；the Li on it ahe Fox soon became jealous of the Li off the Lion’s share，and said that he would the prey，but ture it on his own at. The day he attempted to snatch a lamb from the fold，but he himself fell prey to the huntsmen and hounds.
Do more than you dle.
