Once upon a time a number of Dogs, who were famished with hunger, saw some Hides steeping in a river, but couldn't get at them because the water was too deep. So they put their heads together, and decided to drink away at the river till it was shallow enough for them to reach the Hides. But long before that happened they burst themselves with drinking.
从前，有几只狗饿疯了，看到河里泡着几张兽皮，但是水太深了，他们够不到。于是，他们凑在一起，商量后决定把河水喝掉，等到水变浅些便去捞兽皮来充饥。但是没多久，他们就被水给撑爆了。
