A Kid was perched up on the top of a house, and looking down
saw a Wolf passing under him. Immediately he began to revile1 and
attack his enemy. "Murderer and thief," he cried, "what do you
here near honest folks' houses? How dare you make an appearance
where your vile2 deeds are known?"
"Curse away, my young friend," said the Wolf.
"It is easy to be brave from a safe distance."
