(cf. 6.2.3: UET 6/2 212) The lion had caught a helpless she-goat: "Let me go! I will give you my fellow ewe in return!" "If I am to let you go, tell me your name!" The she-goat answered the lion: "You do not know my name? 'I-am-cleverer-than-you' is my name!" When the lion came to the fold, { he } { (1 ms. has instead:) the lion } cried: "I release you!" She answered him from the other side: "You released me, but were you clever? As for the sheep, none live here!"
