The Swallow the Serpent and the Court of Justice
|
A SWALLOW, returning from abroad and especially fond of dwelling
with men, built herself a nest in the wall of a Court of Justice
and there hatched seven young birds. A Serpent gliding past the
nest from its hole in the wall ate up the young unfledged
nestlings. The Swallow, finding her nest empty, lamented greatly
and exclaimed: 'Woe to me a stranger! that in this place where
all others' rights are protected, I alone should suffer wrong.'
