Report

A Wolf who had a bone stuck in his throat hired a Crane, for a large sum,
to put her head into his mouth and draw out the bone. When the Crane had
extracted the bone and demanded the promised payment, the Wolf, grinning
and grinding his teeth, exclaimed: “Why, you have surely already had a
sufficient recompense, in having been permitted to draw out your head in
safety from the mouth and jaws of a wolf.”
