IN THE WINTERTIME, a Dog curled up in as small a space as

　　possible on account of the cold, determined1 to make himself a

　　house. However when the summer returned again, he lay asleep

　　stretched at his full length and appeared to himself to be of a

　　great size. Now he considered that it would be neither an easy

　　nor a necessary work to make himself such a house as would

　　accommodate him.
