A fox saw a crow fly off with a piece of cheese in its beak and thought, "I want that cheese."
"Good day, crow," he cried. "How lovely you look today. Your feathers are bright and your eyes are shining. I bet your beautiful voice is equally lovely. I'd love to hear a song."
Crow lifted her head an began to sing. When she did, the cheese fell to the ground for fox to gobble up.
Fox said, "That was all I wanted."
