                                                                                     and the Mare

"I don't easily scare," said the hare, "except in a snare."
The mare replied, "Hare, I wouldn't ever purposefully scare ! It's
just that my sight is impaired, giving the false im•pres•sion that I stare."
"Oh, of this I wasn't aware !” com• ment•ed the hare. "Please
excuse my angry glare, do let our friendship repair!”
"Sure thing!" said the mare. "And for showing me you care, I offer
you a ride on my back bare, for which there shan't be any fare."
