   'Twasn't right to have a cat alking you know.

   Long ago all the animals used to talk but this speach was taken off them. When Our Lord was wan day in a little house sheltering from the rain the hens came and went up in the roof and started scraping and they never cried crack 'til they stripped the roof off the house and left the rain down on him.
