Besedilo
Lastovka in kača
A swallow, a stranger who lived among humans, built her nest in the wall of a courthouse, and there became the mother of seven chicks. But a snake crawled out of a hole and devoured her young. Lamenting, the swallow cried out, “Alas for me, a stranger! Here, where everyone finds justice, I alone have suffered injustice!”

Ξένη χελιδών, ἡ τοῖς ἀνθρώποις συνοικοῦσα, ἐν δικαστηρίῳ τὴν ἑαυτῆς ἔπηξε καλιὰν ἐν τοίχῳ, κἀκεῖ γίνεται ἑπτὰ νεοττῶν μήτηρ. Ὄφις δὲ ἐκ τρώγλης συρεὶς τοὺς αὐτῆς κατέφαγε νεοττούς. Ἡ δὲ χελιδών θρηνοῦσα ἐκεκράγει· ,,οἴμοι τῇ ξένῃ, ὅτι ἔνθα πάντες δικαιοῦνται, μόνη ἔγωγε ήδίκημαι.“
