Of the Birds and foure-footed Beasts.
Fab. 34.
THere was a battell with the Birds, and with foure-footed Beasts: The hope of victory was between both of them, feare was on both parts, the danger was be∣twixt both of them, but the Bat lea∣ving his fellows, falles off to the e∣nemies: The Birds overcome, the Eagle being their Captaine and the Guide; but they condemn the Bat, who fled away, that she should not returne at any time to the Birds, and that she should not flie at any time in the light: This is the occasion to the Bat, that she flyeth not, but in the night.
