(cf. 6.1.05.55)The lion had caught a helpless 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 goat answered the lion: "You do not know my name? '……' is my name!" When he came to the fold, he shouted: "…… my ……." She answered him from the other side: "……. As for sheep, none live here!"
