One day some thieves broke into a house. The house had nothing that they could take away. Suddenly they heard a cock in the backyard of the house. The thieves took away the cock with them to their home.
The thieves feed the cock for few days and one fine festive day, they prepared to kill the cock. The cock sensing his death near, grew sad. He pleaded, 'O Human! I plead not to kill me. I am a loyal serviceable animal. I wake people in the early morning to enable them complete their work timely'.
The merciless thieves replied, 'That is the reason we want to kill you. If people sleep longer, we can steal more easily'. The thieves killed the cock.
Moral: Evil men discard noble work done by others.
