There was once upon a time an old fox with nine tails, who believed that his wife was not faithful to him, and wished to put her to the test.
He stretched himself out under the bench, did not move a limb, and behaved as if he were stone dead.
Mrs Fox went up to her room, shut herself in, and her maid, Miss Cat, sat by the fire, and did the cooking.

The maid heard someone standing at the house-door, knocking.
She went and opened it, and it was a young fox, who said:

She answered:

‘No, thank you, miss,’ said the fox, ‘what is Mrs Fox doing?’ The maid replied:

‘Do just tell her, miss, that a young fox is here, who would like to woo her.’ ‘Certainly, young sir.’

‘Has he nine as beautiful tails as the late Mr Fox?’ ‘Oh, no,’ answered the cat, ‘he has only one.’ ‘Then I will not have him.’

Miss Cat went downstairs and sent the wooer away.
Soon afterwards there was another knock, and another fox was at the door who wished to woo Mrs Fox
