The Pig, the Cock, and the Lamb

Explore "The Pig, the Cock, and the Lamb" by Tomás de Iriarte on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.

In a court-yard a poultry-house did lie, / Where a brisk Cock around at pleasure ran; / Behind the court, in a convenient sty, / Lay a stout Pig -- fat as an alderman.

In the same yard, a little Lamb there lived; / And good companions, too, were all the three; / As may be very easily believed, / For such in farmers' yards we often see.
