The Dog and the Shadow by Aesop, Hardcover Barnes & Noble®

A DOG growing thinner, for want of a dinner, Once purloin'd him a joint from a tray; "How happy I am, with this shoulder of lamb!" Thought the cur as he trotted away. But the way that he took, lay just over a brook, Which he found it was needful to cross; So, without more ado, he plunged in to go through, Not dreaming of danger or loss.
