The Wolf and the Sheep by The Brothers Grimm

The Wolf and the Sheep Fable

Aesop's Fables - Very Short Story

A WOLF, sorely wounded and bitten by dogs, lay sick and maimed in his lair. Being in want of food, he called to a Sheep who was passing, and asked him to fetch some water from a stream flowing close beside him. "For," he said, "if you will bring me drink, I will find means to provide myself with meat." "Yes," said the Sheep, "If I should bring you the draught, you would doubtless make me provide the meat also."
