Chapter 98 The Hawk, the Kite, and the Pigeons(老鹰,凌空和鸽子).jpg

THE PIGEONS, terrified by the appearance of a Kite, called upon the Hawk to defend them. —
一群鸽子因为一只风筝的出现而惊恐不已,请求鹰来保护他们。 —

He at once consented. When they had admitted him into the cote, they found that he made more havoc and slew a larger number of them in one day than the Kite could pounce upon in a whole year.
鹰立即答应了。当他们把鹰放进鸽舍后,他们发现鹰一天之内所杀的鸽子比风筝整整一年里捕杀的还要多。
