    wren was hidden in his tail and he flew above the eagle who could fly no higher. The eagle tried to catch him to kill him but the wren hid in a hedge where he remains every since.
    When St. Stephen was hiding a wren flew out from the bush behind which he was hiding and so betrayed his presence. The soldiers caught him and stoned him. Ever since he is hunted by the wren boys on account of that.
