The Eagle and the Beetle.

The Eagle and the Beetle were at enmity together, and they destroyed oneanother's nests. The Eagle gave the first provocation in seizing uponand in eating the young ones of the Beetle. The Beetle got by stealth atthe Eagle's eggs, and rolled them out of the nest, and followed theEagle even into the presence of Jupiter. On the Eagle making hiscomplaint, Jupiter ordered him to make his nest in his lap; and whileJupiter had the eggs in his lap, the Beetle came flying about him, andJupiter, rising up unawares to drive him away from his head, threw downthe eggs, and broke them.

The weak often revenge themselves on those who use them ill, even thoughthey be the more powerful.
