Le Corbeau et le Renard

Maître Corbeau, sur un arbre perché,
Tenait en son bec un fromage...
 The Raven and the Fox

Perched on a lofty oak,
Sir Raven held a lunch of cheese...

    Together with your link it is a perfect statue.

    Just yesterday I walked down the street in our village and saw a freshly-fallen-from-the-sky raven lying dead. Poor thing.
    Well, the jackals will feast.
