<h2>THE EAGLE AND HIS CAPTOR</h2>
<br/>
<p>A Man once caught an Eagle, and after clipping his wings turned
him loose among the fowls in his hen-house, where he moped in a
corner, looking very dejected and forlorn. After a while his Captor
was glad enough to sell him to a neighbour, who took him home and
let his wings grow again. As soon as he had recovered the use of
them, the Eagle flew out and caught a hare, which he brought home
and presented to his benefactor. A fox observed this, and said to
the Eagle, "Don't waste your gifts on him! Go and give them to the
man who first caught you; make _him_ your friend, and then perhaps
he won't catch you and clip your wings a second time."</p>
