Some thieves, on breaking into a house, found nothing in it but a cock, which they picked up and took away.
They were about to sacrifice it when it begged to be spared on the plea that it rendered men a usefulservice by working them before daybreak to star their work.
"All the more reason for killing you," was the reply; for by working them you stop us from stealing.
What benefits honest men is the rogue's worst hamdicap.
