Leo et ursus,
hinnulum simul adepti,
de eo concertant.
Ex multa pugna
graviter a se ipsis affecti,
etiam vertigine correpti,
defatigati iacent.
Vulpes interea circumcirca it.
Prostratos eos videt,
et hinnulum in medio iacentem.
Vulpes per utrosque percurrit,
hinnulum rapit, fugit et abit!
Leo et ursus
vident quidem furacem vulpem,
sed surgere non possunt.
"Eheu, nos miseros!" dicunt,
"quod vulpi laboravimus!"
