The Fox and the Goat

Long long ago in the hot summer day there was a fox was walking nearby the well. Somehow by accident he slipped in that well. It was not a very deep well. He tried his best to get out but it was in vain.
At that time a thirsty goat passed by the well and saw the fox was there in the well. She asked the fox what he was doing there.
The cunning fox replied that he had himself jumped into the well because he wants to drink water and swim in this cool water. I find it very cool and pleasant. Fox replied. If you want to drink this sweet and cold water, then come down and experience the pleasure here.
Without thinking of the result the goat jumped into the well. The fox at once jumped on her back, and with another jump he was out of well. The fox smiled at the poor goat and went his way leaving behind the goat to repent.
Moral: Look before you leap.
