    Story.
    One day a Parish Priest invited two Jesuits to dine, and had two chickens for dinner.
    After dinner the priests passed out through the yard, and seeing some fine fowl said, "Isn't that cock very proud looking? The host who accompanied them, replied,"Why wouldn't he be, with his two sons in the Jesuits?
