One night a bat fell upon the ground and was caught by a
weasel pleaded to be spared of his life. The Weasel refused,
saying that he was by nature the enemy of all birds. The Bat
assured him that he was not a bird, but a mouse, and thus
was set free. Shortly afterwards the Bat again fell to the
ground and caught by another Weasel, whom he likewise
entreated not to eat him. The weasel said that he had a special
hostility to mice. The Bat assured him that he was not a mouse, but a bat, and thus a
second time escaped.
