Illustrated: Serpens et Vespa
617. Serpens et Vespa. Vespa, in serpentis capite olim insidens continuisque aculei sui ictibus feriens, atrociter ipsum vexabat. Serpens itaque, magnis doloribus excruciatus, cum eam nec ulcisci nec a se removere ullo modo posset, forte plaustrum multis lignis onustum cum vidisset, suum caput ultro rotae supposuit, “Moriamur,” aiens, “sed cum hoste moriamur.” Atque ita una cum vespa exstinctus est.
