There were two Game Cocks, having fought a battle, the defeated one ran away and hid himself, but the victor mounted a wall and crowed lustily.
This attracted the attention of a hawk, who
said:
"Behold! how pride go down before a fall."
So he pounced down upon the boasting bird and
was about to destroy him, when the defeated Cock
came out of his hiding-place, and between the
two the Hawk was fortunately defeated.
