Here is the latest RSS FEED from del.icio.us for this fable:

Physiologus. Compare a similar sort of story told in the Physiologus: Est animal quod dicitur autolopus, acerrimum nimis, ut nec venator possit ei appropinquare. Habet autem longa cornua serre figuram habentia, ut possit precidere arbores magnas et altas, et ad terram deponere. Si autem sitierit, vadit ad terribilem Eufraten flumen, et bibit: sunt autem ibi ricine (dicuntur grece), hoc est frutices tenues ramos habentes; et venit ludens ad illam ricinum fruticem, et obligatur in ramis eius. Et clamat, volens fugere, et non potest, obligatus est enim; audiens eum autem venator, veniet et interficiet eum.
