The Thieves And The Rooster
Aesop Fable: The Thieves And The Rooster
Some thieves broke into a house and found nothing but a
Rooster, whom they stole, and got off as fast as they could.
Upon arriving at home they prepared to kill the Rooster, who
thus pleaded for his life: "Pray spare me; I am very serviceable
to men. I wake them up in the night to their work."
"That is the very reason why we must the more kill you,"
they replied; "for when you wake your neighbors, you entirely
put an end to our business."
The safeguards of virtue are hateful to those with evil intentions.
