There once was a speedy hare who� about how fast he could run. Tired of hearing him boast, Slow and Steady, the tortoise,� him to a race. All the animals in the forest� to watch.
Hare ran down the road for a while and then and (p-)� to rest. He� back at Slow and Steady and �out, "How do you expect to win this race when you are walking along at your slow, slow pace?"
Hare� himself out alongside the road and fell asleep, thinking, "There is plenty of time to relax."
Slow and Steady� and walked. He never, ever (s-)� until he came to the finish line.
The animals who were watching� so loudly for Tortoise, they woke up Hare.
Hare�streched and� and began to run again, but it was too late. Tortoise was over the line.
After that, Hare always� himself, "Don't brag about your lightning pace, for Slow and Steady won the race!"
