A hart was being pursued by some dogs. It ran into an ox-stall， and hid itself in a truss of hay. Only the tips of its horns could be seen.

　　一只雄鹿被猎狗追赶得很急，跑进牛栏里，躲在一大堆干草里面，只有鹿角尖露在外面。

　　Soon after the hunters came to the stable， and asked if anyone had seen the hart. The stable boys looked around， but could see nothing. So the hunters went away.

　　猎人们很快来到牛栏，询问是否有人看到这头鹿。牧童们四处张望，什么也没有看到，于是猎人们走了。

　　Later the master came in. He looked around， and saw that something unusual was there.
