| Description: |
Tale-telling. Session organised in the language assistant's house. Some members of his family were present.
The Prophet while travelling with Fox, asked him to repeat different magic formulas which contain his name in various situations
in order to get water, milk, food and a bed to sleep. Fox repeats it with his own name and they do not work. When Fox meets
Crow he does the same again and all sorts of misfortunes happen to Fox, which proves that Fox is an idiot.
