Section 1

The fox was asked to be the child's godfather when the she-wolf gave birth to a pup. He is, above all, a close relative of ours, she explained, and he has a lot of talent and a wonderful understanding. He can teach my young kid and help him advance in life. The fox also came off as being pretty sincere and said, "Worthy Mrs. Gossip" I appreciate the respect you are giving me, but I'll make sure to behave myself so that you get your money's worth. After the party, he said, "Dear Mrs. Gossip," after having fun and making merry. It is our responsibility to take care of the child; it needs to eat well to grow up strong. I am aware of a sheepfold where we could possibly get a tasty treat. The wolf liked the suggestion, so she and the fox walked to the farmyard. He added, "You will be able to creep in there without being seen, and in the meanwhile I will look around on the other side to see if I can pick up a chicken," pointing to the fold from a distance. But instead of going there, he chose to relax by sitting down at the forest's entry and stretching his legs.

The she-wolf entered the barn quietly. The dog that was lying there produced such a noise that the nearby peasants rushed outside, captured the gossip wolf, and showered her skin in a potent burning mixture that had been created for washing. Finally, she managed to get away and pushed herself outside. The fox was lying there, acting as though he had a lot to complain about and saying, "Ah, dear Mrs. Gossip. You must carry me away if you don't want me to lie here and die, Gossip, how poorly I have fared, the villagers have fallen on me and broken every limb I have. The fox was totally safe and sound, but the she-wolf, who could only move slowly herself, carried him carefully to her house on her back because she was so worried about him. The fox then yelled, "Goodbye, dear Mrs. Gossip," to her. Laughed loudly at her and ran off, saying, "May the roasting you've received do you good."
