The Two Fellows and the Bear

The Two Fellows and the Bear

Two Fellows were traveling together through a wood when a Bear rushed out upon them. One of the travelers happened to be in front, and he seized hold of the branch of a tree and hid among the leaves. The other, seeing no help for it, threw himself flat down upon the ground, with his face in the dust. The Bear, coming up to him, put his muzzle close to his ear, and sniffed and sniffed. But at last with a growl, he shook his head and slouched off, for bears will not touch dead meat. Then the fellow in the tree came down to his comrade, and, laughing, said “What was it that Master Bruin whispered to you?” “He told me,” said the other, “Never trust a friend who deserts you at a pinch.”
