He was very angry to think that any animal that he chose for a meal, should be so brazen as to wear such dangerous things as horns to scratch him while he ate. So he commanded that all animals with horns should leave his domains within twenty-four hours.</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;">The command struck terror among the beasts. All those who were so unfortunate as to have horns, began to pack up and move out. Even the Hare, who, as you know, has no horns and so had nothing to fear, passed a very restless night, dreaming awful dreams about the fearful Lion.</span><br /> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgEcBkKiUKpuVRT6aEUZuSvjbQyg06ON-hVvsEEQoWeHfoE1nDpVpJk8gLjk28VdFBex4QK2f7PeVWm5M7zYqyRn3xBHoqEuY5auaQ4665RViwiYhyphenhyphen2j-dFCj-80Eef1y9FnsbfcMGJXh7f/s1600/The-Hare-and-His-Ears.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgEcBkKiUKpuVRT6aEUZuSvjbQyg06ON-hVvsEEQoWeHfoE1nDpVpJk8gLjk28VdFBex4QK2f7PeVWm5M7zYqyRn3xBHoqEuY5auaQ4665RViwiYhyphenhyphen2j-dFCj-80Eef1y9FnsbfcMGJXh7f/s1600/The-Hare-and-His-Ears.jpg" /></a></div> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;">And when he came out of the warren in the early morning sunshine, and there saw the shadow cast by his long and pointed ears, a terrible fright seized him.</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;">"Goodby, neighbor Cricket," he called.
