Aesop's Fables Edited by Charles Stikeney.

THE DOG AND THE HARE

A Dog once gave chase to a Hare.   Having
not long since made a good meal, the Dog
was not hungry, and so was not in haste to end
the sport by killing the Hare.
   At times he would snap at his prey, and at
times play with him, and lick him with his
tongue, till at last the bewildered Hare cried:
   "Pray tell me, are you an enemy or a friend?
If a friend, why do you bite me so? and if an
enemy, why do you caress me?"
   We do not trust people who are neither the
one thing nor the other.
