Of the Ape and the Fox.

Fab. 41.

THe Ape prayed the Fox, that she would give part of her taile to cover her buttocks, for saith the Ape that that is a burthen to her, which might be profit and honour to the Ape, the Fixon made answer, that she had nothing too much, and that she had rather that the ground should be swept with her taile, then that the buttocks of the Ape should be covered therewith.
