Aquila quondam implicita est
dolis caecis laqueorum.
Ubi hoc sentit,
aquila simul impetum facit
et quaerit se expedire.
Ira et furore fortis,
unice hoc agit,
et nil proficit.
Mus aquilae laborem videt
et misertus est.
Abrodit ergo vincula
dente crebro,
et armigeram Iovis vindicat
in libertatem.
At libera illa aquila dicit,
"Res turpissima est
me vitam debere
contemptissimae bestiolae!
Proh Iuppiter!”
Et aqulia liberatorem suum necat.
Fabula docet:
Si humilis summum servat,
piaculum est.
This story is based on 412. Aquila et Mus.
