The Sick Wolf and The Sheep

There was once a starving wolf in a sorry state. He had been obliged to flee from a pack of dogs and for many days he had found nothing to eat. He spied a little white sheep and thought `At last! Here is a meal for me!`

`Little white sheep,` he said to her, `could you please get me a drop of water from the river? as you can see, I am very unwell. If you can bring me something to drink, I will be able to find something to eat.` `But if I you something to drink,` said the little sheep, `then already have found yourself something to eat!` and skipped off in the opposite direction.
