Ep. 130 - The Cock's Stone

There was once in the city of Black-Grotto an old man named Janor, who was so miserably poor that all he owned was a little cock that he had reared on bread-crumbs. But one morning, being pinched with hunger, he took it into his head to sell the cock. Taking it to the market, he there met two rascally magicians. With them he made a bargain, selling it to them for half-a-crown. So they told him to take it to their house and they would count him out the money. Then the magicians went their way.
