It was all very well while there was regular rainfall; but when summer came, and it began to be very hot, the water dried up and the water level got lower and lower, until there was hardly enough to cover the fish.Now not far away there was a beautiful lake, always fresh and cool; for it lay under the shadow of great trees, and it was covered all over with water-lilies. And a Crane lived on the banks of this lake.The Crane used to eat fish, when he could catch any; and one day, coming to the little pool, he saw all the fish gasping in it, and thought of a neat trick to get hold of them without trouble.What was the trick the crane thought of?
