The hyena, the fox and the monkey lived together in one house.

They took four cows from a farmer in the village.

"The oldest one can have it," said the fox.

"It wasn't last year," the hyena said. "Or the year before that."

"Oh," said the monkey. "I was born on the very first day." 

"You are right," said the fox. "I remember it well." 

They gave the fourth cow to the fox.
