The Crow And The Serpent
Aesop Fable: The Crow And The Serpent
A crow in great want of food saw a Serpent asleep in a
sunny nook, and flying down, greedily seized him. The Serpent,
turning about, bit the Crow with a mortal wound.
In
the agony of death, the bird exclaimed: "O unhappy me!
who have found in that which I deemed a happy windfall
the source of my destruction."
