$ fortune | cowsay _________________________________________ / Troll sat alone on his seat of stone, \ | And munched and mumbled a bare old | | bone; For many a year he had gnawed it | | near, For meat was hard to come by. | | | | Done by! Gum by! In a cave in the hills | | he dwelt alone, And meat was hard to | | come by. | | | | Up came Tom with his big boots on. Said | | he to Troll: "Pray, what is youn? For | | it looks like the shin o' my nuncle | | Tim, As should be a-lyin in graveyard. | | | | Caveyard! Paveyard! This many a year | | has Tim been gone, And I thought he | | were lyin' in graveyard." | | | | "My lad," said Troll, "this bone I | | stole. But what be bones that lie in a | | hole? Thy nuncle was dead as a lump o' | | lead, Afore I found his shinbone. | | | | Tinbone! Thinbone! He can spare a share | | for a poor old troll For he don't need | | his shinbone." | | | | Said Tom: "I don't see why the likes o' | | thee Without axin' leave should go | | makin' free With the shank or the shin | | o' my father's kin; So hand the old | | bone over! | | | | Rover! Trover! Though dead he be, it | | belongs to he; So hand the old bnone | | over!" | | | \ -- J. R. R.
