English Original
An eagle sat on a lofty rock, watching the movements of a hare whom he sought to make his prey. An archer, who saw the eagle from a place of concealment, took an accurate aim and wounded him mortally.
The eagle gave one look at the arrow that had entered his heart and saw in that single glance that its feathers had been furnished by himself.
"It is a double grief to me," he exclaimed, "that I should perish by an arrow feathered from my own wings."

一只鹰栖息在一块高高的岩石上，注视着它想捕食的野兔的动向。一名弓箭手从隐蔽处看到了这只鹰，精准地瞄准并给了它致命一击。
鹰看了一眼刺入自己心脏的箭，就在那一瞥之间，它发现箭上的羽毛正是由自己提供的。
"这对我来说是双重的悲哀，"它喊道，"我竟然会死于一支用我自己翅膀上的羽毛制成的箭。"
