De Vulpe in Puteo

Title: De Vulpe in Puteo: The Fox in The Well

Source: The same Latin fable shows in Aesop's Fables, 1687 (illustrated by Francis Barlow) as both Fable 8 and Fable 60.

Parallels: For parallel versions to the Latin story, see Perry 9. For a parallel to the English poem, see Perry 211 (although the fable is about a boy and a man, not about a fox and a wolf, as in the poem).
