L\u2019Aigle avait ses petits au haut d\u2019un arbre creux.
\nLa Laie au pied, la Chatte entre les deux ;
\nEt sans s\u2019incommoder, moyennant ce partage,
\nM\u00e8res et nourrissons faisaient leur tripotage.
\nLa Chatte d\u00e9truisit par sa fourbe l\u2019accord.
\nElle grimpa chez l\u2019Aigle, et lui dit : \u00ab Notre mort
\n(Au moins de nos enfants, car c\u2019est tout un aux m\u00e8res)
\nNe tardera possible gu\u00e8res.
\nVoyez-vous \u00e0 nos pieds fouir incessamment
\nCette maudite Laie, et creuser une mine ?
\nC\u2019est pour d\u00e9raciner le ch\u00eane assur\u00e9ment,
\nEt de nos nourrissons attirer la ruine.
\nL\u2019arbre tombant, ils seront d\u00e9vor\u00e9s :
\nQu\u2019ils s\u2019en tiennent pour assur\u00e9s.
\nS\u2019il m\u2019en restait un seul, j\u2019adoucirais ma plainte. \u00bb
\nAu partir de ce lieu, qu\u2019elle remplit de crainte,
\nLa perfide descend tout droit
\n\u00c0 l\u2019endroit
\nO\u00f9 la Laie \u00e9tait en g\u00e9sine.
\n\u00ab Ma bonne amie et ma voisine,
\nLui dit-elle tout bas, je vous donne un avis :
\nL\u2019Aigle, si vous sortez, fondra sur vos petits :
\nObligez-moi de n\u2019en rien dire ;
\nSon courroux tomberait sur moi. \u00bb
\nDans cette autre famille ayant sem\u00e9 l\u2019effroi,
\nLa Chatte en son trou se retire.
\nL\u2019Aigle n\u2019ose sortir, ni pourvoir aux besoins
\nDe ses petits ; la Laie encore moins :
\nSottes de ne pas voir que le plus grand des soins,
\nCe doit \u00eatre celui d\u2019\u00e9viter la famine.
\n\u00c0 demeurer chez soi l\u2019une et l\u2019autre s\u2019obstine
\nPour secourir les siens dedans l\u2019occasion :
\nL\u2019oiseau royal, en cas de mine,
\nLa Laie, en cas d\u2019irruption.
\nLa faim d\u00e9truisit tout : il ne resta personne.
\nDe la gent marcassine et de la gent aiglonne,
\nQui n\u2019all\u00e2t de vie \u00e0 tr\u00e9pas :
\nGrand renfort pour messieurs les Chats.<\/p>\n
Que ne sait point ourdir une langue tra\u00eetresse
\nPar sa pernicieuse adresse !
\nDes malheurs qui sont sortis
\nDe la bo\u00eete de Pandore,
\nCelui qu\u2019\u00e0 meilleur droit tout l\u2019Univers abhorre,
\nC\u2019est la fourbe, \u00e0 mon avis.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"parent":0,"template":"","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"default","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"default","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"set","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}}},"annee":[152],"poems-book":[142],"poemes-theme":[342,378,365],"poete":[151],"class_list":["post-823","poemes","type-poemes","status-publish","hentry","annee-152","poems-book-fables","poemes-theme-animaux","poemes-theme-mensonge","poemes-theme-trahison","poete-jean-de-la-fontaine"],"yoast_head":"\n
