wolf had been badly wounded by dogs. He lay sick and maimed in his lair.
He felt very hungry and thirsty. When a sheep passed by, he asked him to fetch some water from the stream.
If you bring me the water, he said, I will find means to get some food.
Yes, said the sheep, if I bring you the water, you would undoubtedly make me your food.
