The Wolf and the Crane. 10 by TownsendA WOLF who had a bone stuck in his
throat hired a Crane, for a large sum, to put her head
into his mouth and draw out the bone. When the Crane had
extracted the bone and demanded the promised payment, the
Wolf, grinning and grinding his teeth, exclaimed:
"Why, you have surely already had a sufficient
recompense, in having been permitted to draw out your
head in safety from the mouth and jaws of a wolf." Pe156=Ch224, Ph1.8, Ba94, Cax1.8,
