you are one of Actaeon's hounds. By eating the
partridge of Agathias your master, you hurt him

heart is set now on partridge, but the mice mean-

tu es bien de la meute d'Actéon ; pour avoir mangé la perdrix
de ton maître Agathias, tu fais sa douleur ; c'est comme si tu
avais dévoré ton maitre lui-même. Pour toi, les perdrix
