A dog and a cock A journey once took, They travelled along till 'twas late; The dog he made free In the hollow of a tree, And the cock on the boughs of it sate.

The cock, nothing knowing, In the morn fell a-crowing, Upon which comes a fox to the tree; Says he, "I declare Your voice is above All the creatures I ever did see.

"Oh, would you come down, I would hug you, my own!" Said the cock, "There's a porter beneath; If you'll ask his advice, I'll come down in a trice!" So he did, and was worried to death.
