The Hawk, the Kite, and the Pigeons
The pigeons, terrified by the appearance of a Kite, called upon the Hawk to defend
them. 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.
The moral of the story is: Avoid a remedy that is worse than the disease.
