| 11339 | How comes it, then, that you have failed to disarm the enmity of men?" |
| 11339 | How will you get the birds to come to your nets?" |
| 11339 | If you are my enemy, why do you play with me?" |

| 11339 | The Fox heard him, and recognised him at once for the Ass he was, and said to him,"Oho, my friend, it''s you, is it? |
| 11339 | The Fox replied,"Me? |
| 11339 | The Wolf thanked her warmly, and was just turning away, when she cried,"What about that fee of mine?" |
| 11339 | The gift of a friend, perhaps, eh?" |
| 11339 | The latter was a good deal surprised to see him back so soon, and said,"Why, do you mean to say you have tested him already?" |
| 11339 | Their remarks were overheard by the Dog, who spoke up at once and said,"Yes, and quite right, too: where would you be if it was n''t for me? |
| 11339 | Then he said,"Since you and I are in like case, shall we not do well to marry and live together? |
| 11339 | Then the Dog said in disgust,"Oh, throw it away, do: what''s the good of a thing like that?" |
| 11339 | Then the King summoned his subjects and addressed them as follows:"What folly could be greater than yours? |

| 11339 | When the Cock saw what he was after, he too pleaded for his life, and said,"If you kill me, how will you know the time of night? |
| 11339 | When the Woman heard his cries, she came and said,"Why, are you weeping still?" |
| 11339 | When the coast was clear the timid one ran back, and, flourishing his weapon, cried in a threatening voice,"Where is he? |
| 11339 | Where are all your gay trappings now?" |
| 11339 | Who stole the meat? |
| 11339 | Why did n''t you collect a store of food for the winter?" |
| 11339 | Why do you make such a noise when we do all the work?" |
| 11339 | Why, how can you set up to heal others when you can not even cure your own lame legs and blotched and wrinkled skin?" |
| 11339 | Why, what will you do without me next time you go fowling? |
| 11339 | Will you be pleased to accept it?" |
| 11339 | Will you not play me a tune to dance to before I die?" |
| 11339 | Wo n''t you come in and join me?" |
| 11339 | You do n''t think, do you, that your bell was given you as a reward of merit? |
| 11339 | and who will wake you up in the morning when it is time to get to work?" |
