AESOP'S FABLES

�s�.

620 BC-563 BC

The Hare, deeming her asser tion to be simply impossible, assented to the proposal; and they agreed that the Fox should choose the course, and fix the goal. On the day appointed for the race they star ted together. The Tor toise never for a moment stopped, but went on with a slow but steady pace straight to the end of the course. The Hare, trusting to his native swiftness, cared little about the race, and lying down by the wayside, fell fast asleep. At last waking up, and moving as fast as he could, he saw the Tor toise had reached the goal, and was comfor tably dozing after her fatigue.
