Aesop's Fables (1884)3. The Fox and the Mask. A fox entered the house of an actor, and, rummaging through all his properties, came upon a Mask, an admirable imitation of a human head. He placed his paws on it, and said: "What a beautiful head! yet it is of no value, as it entirely wants brains." A fair face is of little use without sense.
