Summary

| Description |
English: fable from Emblem book of Johannes Sambucus, 1567
Not long ago in Berga (a small town by the sea where the road to fat Zeeland begins) a small monkey gave us an example noteworthy and amusing for its cunning. For, when he saw the chestnuts buried in the hearth, he began to brush the ash aside, but, afraid of the burning coals, he suddenly seized the foot of a sleeping puppy and stole it out. The thing is worthy of your trust, for it happened not long ago. To divert harm from another is worthy of praise, but to harm another with cunning is deceit. Those who like to weave evil plots seek to gain the advantage over good people with evils. Little kings and leaders too are mad, but the punishment falls on the innocent populace: with its blood they divide their insanity. |
