An old story! an old story!
Clever Brahman, an old story!
What shall I say?
I know none.
Little chickens! little chickens!
Sing me a song!
What can I sing?
Pyong! Pyong!
The Cock did say:
"I use alway
To crow both first and last,
Like a postle I am,
For I preache to man,
And tell hym the nyght is past."
