There were some Pigeons who were frightened by the appearance of a Kite, called upon the Hawk to save 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.
Moral: Avoid a remedy that is worse
than the disease.
