A CAT caught a Cock, and pondered how he might find a reasonable
excuse for eating him.  He accused him of being a nuisance to men
by crowing in the nighttime and not permitting them to sleep.
The Cock defended himself by saying that he did this for the
benefit of men, that they might rise in time for their labors1.
The Cat replied, "Although you abound2 in specious3 apologies, I
shall not remain supperless"; and he made a meal of him.
