Soon afterwards， as they were passing by a farmyard， they saw a cock perched upon a gate， and screaming out with all his might and main. 'Bravo!' said the ass; 'upon my word， you make a famous noise; pray what is all this about?' 'Why，' said the cock， 'I was just now saying that we should have fine weather for our washing-day， and yet my mistress and the cook don't thank me for my pains， but threaten to cut off my head tomorrow， and make broth of me for the guests that are coming on Sunday!' 'Heaven forbid!' said the ass， 'come with us Master Chanticleer; it will be better， at any rate， than staying here to have your head cut off! Besides， who knows? If we care to sing in tune， we may get up some kind of a concert; so come along with us.' 'With all my heart，' said the cock： so they all four went on jollily together.
