FAB. CCCCLVI.

A _Lion_, _Boar_, and _Vultures_.

There happen’d a Desperate Quarrel betwixt a _Lion_ and a _Boar_; they

Fought upon’t, and the _Vultures_ came hovering over the Combatants to

make a Prey of him that should be left upon the Spot: But it so fell

out, that there was no Death in the Case, and the _Vultures_ were not a

little troubled at the Disappointment.

The MORAL.

_When Fools fall out, it shall go Hard but Knaves will be the better

for’t._
