The Hen and the Vipers

The Hen and the Vipers

A Hen who had patiently hatched out a brood of vipers, was accosted by a Swallow, who said: “What a fool you are to give life to creatures who will reward you by destroying you.” “I am a little bit on the destroy myself,” said the Hen, tranquilly swallowing one of the little reptiles; “and it is not an act of folly to provide oneself with the delicacies of the season.” A Seasonable Joke A Spendthrift, seeing a single swallow, pawned his cloak, thinking that Summer was at hand.  It was.
