I shall return your kindness."
" Ha, ha, ha," laughed the lion. " How can a little thing like you help a great lion?" " Thank you very much, kind Lion! I hope I shall be able to do you a good return some day," said the little mouse.
Some time after this, the lion was caught in a trap. Just then the little mouse came
along. At once she ran up to the lion, and said, " You were very kind to me once. Now I'll save your life, and repay you the kindness which you showed me the other day." Soon she gnawed the ropes of the trap with her sharp teeth, and the lion was happy to be free again.
" Thank you, little Mouse!" said the lion, and he walked away.

“Thank you, Mr. Fox. But how about your coming up here? It is very nice and cool here,” replied the cock. “All right, I will. But how can I get up?” asked the fox. “Just go round the trunk below me, and wake my servant in a hollow. He will open the door for you,” said the cock. The fox came near the hollow.

“All right. I'll help you. Open your mouth as wide as you can,” said the crane, and put his head into the wolf’s mouth and pulled out the bone. “Thank you very much, my friend,” said the wolf. “Now I must be paid for the work,” said the crane.
