  A peasant had a faithful horse which had grown old and could

  do no more work, so his master would no longer give him

  anything to eat and said, "I can certainly make no more use

  of thee, but still I mean well by thee; if thou provest thyself

  still strong enough to bring me a lion here, I will maintain

  thee, but now take thyself away out of my stable," and with

  that he chased him into the open country. The horse was

  sad, and went to the forest to seek a little protection there

  from the weather. Then the fox met him and said, "Why dost thou

  hang thy head so, and go about all alone?" "Alas," replied the

  horse, "avarice and fidelity do not dwell together in one

  house. My master has forgotten what services I have

  performed for him for so many years, and because I can no

  longer plough well, he will give me no more food, and has

  driven me out." "Without giving thee a chance?" asked the fox.

  "The chance was a bad one. He said, if I were still strong

  enough to bring him a lion, he would keep me, but he well

  knows that I cannot do that." The fox said, "I will help thee,

  just lay thyself down, stretch thyself out, as if thou wert

  dead, and do not stir." The horse did as the fox desired,

  and the fox went to the lion, who had his den not far off,

  and said, "A dead horse is lying outside there, just come

  with me, thou canst have a rich meal." The lion went with

  him, and when they were both standing by the horse the fox said,

  "After all, it is not very comfortable for thee here I tell thee what I

  will fasten it to thee by the tail, and then thou canst drag it

  into thy cave, and devour it in peace."

  This advice pleased the lion: he lay down, and in order that

  the fox might tie the horse fast to him, he kept quite quiet.

  But the fox tied the lion's legs together with the horse's

  tail, and twisted and fastened all so well and so strongly

  that no strength could break it. When he had finished his

  work, he tapped the horse on the shoulder and said, "Pull,

  white horse, pull." Then up sprang the horse at once, and

  drew the lion away with him. The lion began to roar so

  that all the birds in the forest flew out in terror, but

  the horse let him roar, and drew him and dragged him over

  the country to his master's door. When the master saw the

  lion, he was of a better mind, and said to the horse, "Thou

  shalt stay with me and fare well," and he gave him plenty

  to eat until he died.
