The Hare and the Hedgehog

While taking a walk out in the field to steal some of the farmer's turnips, a Hedgehog is met by a Hare stealing some cabbages. The Hare being very boastful and egocentric makes fun of Mr. Hedgehog's legs considering him to be less important. This made the hedgehog furiously angry and drove him to challenge the Hare to a race, betting a gold coin and silken handkerchief. Before the big race the Hedgehog goes home with a plan up his sleeve, he gets his busy housewife to pose as himself and hide behind the hedge at the bottom of the field where the finish line is... The race begins and the Hare takes off, but the Hedgehog doesn't move. The Hare runs faster and faster down the field but when he reaches the bottom of the field, Mrs Hedgehog jumps out ad shouts ""I am here already"". The Hare was thunderstruck; he thought it was Mr. Hedgehog because most hedgehogs look alike. ""This will not do!"" he shouted, ""No this will not do at all. The race can not be run fairly we must have the race agai
