‘’ Nay,
master, nay,’’ said Lambiking.’’ If the water be muddy up there l cannot be the
cause of it, for it runs down from you to me.’’
‘’Well,

‘’l don’t care,’’ snarled the Wolf,’’ Wolf if it
was not your father,’’ and with that he rushed upon the poor little Lamb

animal material, recycling it so that plants can use the nutrients. Fungi live
in damp areas on in water because they have no method of preventing their
