237 wolf. The lion, knowing the danger into which he was running, did all in his power to stay him. " Close at hand, " said he, " is Brancalion, a most cruel animal, who has a cross-bow that makes such a noise, that it is terrific to hear it ; and he has, moreover, on his back a strange thing made of leather, that I fancy serves him for a cuirass ; his hair is grey, and he does such wonderful things, as amaze all who come near him. " The wolf by this description knew at once what he was talking... about, and he said, " My lord, be not afraid ; it is only an ass, the vilest creature Nature has made, only fit to carry burdens and be cudgelled. I have eaten many a hundred of them in my time ; and though I am grey, I am not very old yet. Come, Sir, and I will let you see the proof of it. " " Go yourself, if you like, " said the lion ; " for my part, I am quite satisfied with what I have seen already. " The wolf, however, persuaded him ; and the lion agreed to go back, on condition that they should tie their two tails together, " that we may not se- parate, " said he, " and one of us be at his mercy.
