A Story
“A fox caught a cock and put his two front paws round his neck.”
A fox caught a cock and put his two front paws round his neck. "Musha, don't eat me, don't eat me until you have said grace for your food" said the cock.
Then the fox raised his two paws to say grace. Then the cock suddenly flew up to a tree, the fox then cursed said "My curse on anyone who says grace until his food is in its belly".- Collector
