L'Estrange: A Vulture's Invitation.

The Vulture took up a Fit of a very good Humour once, and invited the whole Nation of the Birds to make merry with him, upon the Anniversary of his Birth-Day. The Company came; the Vulture shuts the Doors upon them, and Devours his Guests instead of Treating Them.

There's no Meddling with any Man that has neither Faith, Honour nor Good Nature in him.
