A Lion found a Hare sleeping in her form, and was just going to

devour her when he caught sight of a passing stag. Dropping the

Hare, he at once made for the bigger game; but finding, after a

long chase, that he could not overtake the stag, he abandoned the

attempt and came back for the Hare. When he reached the spot,

however, he found she was nowhere to be seen, and he had to go

without his dinner. "It serves me right," he said; "I should have

been content with what I had got, instead of hankering after a

better prize."
