But the heron replied , ` You should not have believed him . He could never have jumped so high . He only deceived you because he wanted something for supper . ' And with these words the heron flew off . He had hardly got out of sight when again the jackal came creeping slowly round the foot of the rock . And when he saw the dove he cried out a second time , ` Ohe , ohe , mother dove ! give me one of your little ones , or I will jump on your nest and eat you all up . ' This time the dove knew better , and she answered boldly , ` Indeed , I shall do nothing of the sort , ' though her heart beat wildly with fear when she saw the jackal preparing for a spring . However , he only cut himself against the rock , and thought he had better stick to threats , so he started again with his old cry , ` Mother dove , mother dove ! be quick and give me one of your little ones , or I will eat you all up . ' But the mother dove only answered as before , ` Indeed , I shall do nothing of the sort , for I know we are safely out of your reach . ' The jackal felt it was quite hopeless to get what he wanted , and asked , ` Tell me , mother dove , how have you suddenly become so wise ? ' ` It was the heron who told me , ' replied she . ` And which way did he go ? ' said the jackal . ` Down there among the reeds . You can see him if you look , ' said the dove . Then the jackal nodded good-bye , and went quickly after the heron . He soon came up to the great bird , who was standing on a stone on the edge of the river watching for a nice fat fish . ` Tell me , heron , ' said he , ` when the wind blows from that quarter , to which side do you turn ? '
` And which side do you turn XXXXX ? '
