A Wolf coming out of a field of oats met with a Horse, and thus
addressed him: "I would advise you to go into that field. It is full
of capital oats, which I have left untouched for you, as you are a
friend the very sound of whose teeth it will be a pleasure to me to
hear." The Horse replied: "If oats had been the food for wolves, you
would never have indulged your ears at the cost of your belly."
