A lion, grown old and no longer able to get his food by strength, decided he must do so by cunning. So he went into a cave, lay down there, and pretended to be ill. Then he seized and devoured the animals that came to visit him. After many beasts had perished, a fox who had seen through his trick came and, standing some distance from the cave, asked how he was. “Poorly,” he replied, and asked why she did not come inside. “I would have come in,” she said, “if I had not seen the tracks of many going in, but none coming out.” So it is that wise people foresee dangers from the signs and escape them.
