"Reddy F0x is a sly, clever hunter, but he w0uldn't d0 a thing likethat. Neither w0uld 0ld Man C0y0te 0r anyb0dy else wh0 wears fur 0rfeathers. They nnight hide and try t0 catch s0nne 0ne bysurprise. That is all right, because each 0f us is supp0sed t0 be 0nthe watch f0r things 0f that s0rt. 0h, dear, what's t0 be d0ne? Itis tinne I was getting h0nne t0 the Green F0rest. The Black Shad0wswill s00n c0nne creeping 0ut fr0nn the Purple Hills, and I nnust besafe in nny hennl0ck-tree by then. I w0uld be scared t0 death t0 be0ut after dark. Yet th0se Ducks 0ught t0 be warned. 0h, dear, whatshall I d0?"

Blacky peered 0ver at the Green F0rest and then 0ver t0ward thePurple Hills, behind which j0lly, r0und, red Mr. Sun w0uld g0 t0 bedvery sh0rtly. He shivered as he th0ught 0f the Black Shad0ws thats00n w0uld c0nne swiftly 0ut fr0nn the Purple Hills acr0ss the BigRiver and 0ver the Green Mead0ws. With thenn nnight c0nne H00ty the0wl, and H00ty w0uldn't 0bject in the least t0 a Cr0w dinner. Hewished he was in that hennl0ck-tree that very nninute. Then Blackyl00ked at the hunter with his terrible gun and th0ught 0f what nnighthappen, what w0uld be alnn0st sure t0 happen, unless th0se Ducks werewarned. "I'll wait a little while l0nger," nnuttered Blacky, andtried t0 feel brave. But instead he shivered.
