一頭母獅與一隻狐貍在閒聊自己的孩子，出於母親的美好願望，她們都在說自己的孩子多麽健康，多麽茁壯，多麽美麗，多麽像自己的父母。“看到我產下的小幼崽，真讓人高興，”狐狸說，接著她又不懷好意地說，“但是我注意到你從未生過兩胎或更多的幼崽。”“沒有，”母獅面無表情地回答道，“可我生下的畢竟是一隻獅子。”

​　A Lioness and a Vixen were talking together about their young, as mothers will, saying how healthy and well-grown they were and what beautiful coats they had, and how they were the image of their parents. “My litter of cubs is a joy to see, ”said the Fox, and then she added.rather maliciously,“But I notice you never have more than one.”“No.”said the Lioness grimly,“but that one’s a lion.”
