A Wolf, who in devouring1 a man had choked himself with a bunch of keys, asked an ostrich2 to put her head down his throat and pull them out, which she did.

“I suppose,” said the Wolf, “you expect payment for that service.”

“A kind act,” replied the Ostrich, “is its own reward; I have eaten the keys.”
