He would surely have a hearty meal.
On his way home, however, he had to cross a small bridge across a brook.
But as he was crossing, he saw his own shadow in the water below.
 He thought, “I must have that bone, too.”
He barked at his own shadow. And the bone in his mouth fell into the water,
gone forever.
