      THE COCK AND THE BEAN

       Table of Contents

      He tried to swallow it, and choked himself. He choked himself and stretched himself out, and there he lay, and couldn't even breathe.

      A cock was scratching one day in the earth under the wall of a cottage when he found a bean.

      And his mistress saw him, ran up to him, and asked: “Mr. Cock, what makes you lie there like that, so that you can't breathe?”

      “I've choked myself with a bean,” he answered. “Go and ask the cow for some butter.”

      And his mistress came to the cow and said: “Mrs. Cow, give me some butter! My cock is lying there and can't even breathe, he has choked himself with a bean.”
