The Well-Fed Wolf and the Ewe

A wolf gorged with food saw a ewe struck down on the ground. Realising that she had let herself fall out of fright, he came up and reassured her, promising, if she told him three true sayings, to let her go. Then the ewe began by telling him that she would have wished not to meet him; then, failing that, that she would have wished to find him blind; in the third place, she cried out, "May you wicked wolves all perish by an evil death, since, having suffered no harm from us, you wickedly make war on us!" The wolf acknowledged her truthfulness and let her go.
