So, you see, by hiding amongst a flock of sheep I should save my life, for the dogs would not be able either to see me, or smell me, or to follow me, even if they could.” HE SHEEP THEY ARE SO GENTLE AND WHEN I CAME TO THEM I SHOULD RUN RIGHT INTO THE MIDDLE OF THEM AND THEN THE DOGS WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO FIND ME BUT WOULD NOT THE DOGS FOLLOW YOU IN AMONGST THE SHEEP AND CATCH YOU THERE SAID TOMMY SMITH NO SAID THE HARE THEY WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO FOR THE FLOCK WOULD KEEP TOGETHER SO THAT THE DOGS COULD ONLY RUN AROUND THE OUTSIDE OF IT BUT I SHOULD KEEP RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE AND WHEREVER THE SHEEP WENT I SHOULD GO WITH THEM I COULD RUN BETWEEN THEIR FEET YOU KNOW BESIDES THE DOGS WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO SEE ME AMONG SO MANY SHEEP NO SAID TOMMY SMITH BUT COULD NOT THEY STILL FOLLOW YOU BY SCENT NO INDEED THEY COULD NOT SAID THE HARE FOR YOU SEE SHEEP HAVE A STRONGER SCENT THAN I HAVE AND THEY WOULD PUT DOWN THEIR FEET JUST IN THE VERY PLACE WHERE I HAD PUT DOWN MINE AND THEN THEIR SCENT WOULD HIDE MINE SO YOU SEE BY HIDING AMONGST A FLOCK OF SHEEP I SHOULD SAVE MY LIFE FOR THE DOGS WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO EITHER SEE ME OR SMELL ME OR TO FOLLOW ME EVEN IF THEY COULD
