For an image today, here is the story of the idealistic rabbits, 166. Lepores et Leones. Quodam tempore visum est omnibus bestiis conventum et coetum habere, quod aliarum de aliis frequentissimae querelae essent. Ubi dictis ultro citroque sententiis, lepores ita contionatos perhibent: videri sibi aequum omnium ut bestiarum eadem sit dignitas et par potestas, neque oportere alias tanto plus, alias minus valere; hoc enim pacto fieri ut inferiores praestantibus direptioni et praedae sint. Quibus dictis, oblocutos leones accepimus orationi leporinae deesse ungues et dentes. (source)
