The Eagle And His Captor
Aesop Fable: The Eagle And His Captor
An eagle was once captured by a man, who immediately
clipped his wings and put him into his poultry-yard with
the other birds, at which treatment the Eagle was weighed
down with grief. Later, another neighbor purchased him
and allowed his feathers to grow again. The Eagle took
flight, and pouncing upon a hare, brought it at once as an
offering to his benefactor.
A Fox, seeing this, exclaimed,
"Do not cultivate the favor of this man, but of your former
owner, lest he should again hunt for you and deprive you a
second time of your wings."
