L'Estrange: A Crow and a Raven.
The Ancients tell us, that the Crow was once Minerva's Favourite, and the Raven Apollo's; but the One of them was found to be so full of Tongue, so Over-officious and Inquisitive; and the Other so Desperately given to Croking and Foreboding upon Evil things to come, that they fell both into Disgrace for't.
Great Talkers, Medlers, and Busie-Bodies, are the very Pest of Human Society.
