Mus instruit filiam suam,
"Noli exire cavernam!"
Filia tamen cavernam exit
et videt gallum,
paleas cum pedibus removentem
et plurimum clamantem.
Haec videns,
valde timet!
Videt etiam felem iuxta caminum,
suaviter appropinquantem.
Quod feles lento gradu ambulat,
mus eam non exspectat,
sed cavernam intrat,
tremens.
Mater filiam trementem invenit
et ei dicit,
"Quare sic tremis, filia mea?"
Filia respondet,
"Gallum vidi,
quasi diabolum!
Felem quoque vidi,
quasi heremitam."
Mater exclamat,
"Noli timere illum
qui videtur ita malus,
sed cave ab illo
qui videtur sanctus."
