Rabbit Rides Fox A-courting. The fox is the favorite suitor of the girl the rabbit wants. The rabbit tells the girl that the fox is his horse. She refuses to believe him. She agrees to marry if he will ride to her house. He persuades fox to carry him - usually by feigning lameness - and wins the girl. (Sometimes told of human beings.) [K1241, K1241.1]. Cf. Type 4.
