pata
EN In the porkers he saw carved out the future sleek side of bacon, and juicy relishing ham; not a turkey but he beheld daintily trussed up, with its gizzard under its wing, and, peradventure, a necklace of savory sausages; and even bright chanticleer himself lay sprawling on his back, in a side-dish, with uplifted claws, as if craving that quarter which his chivalrous spirit disdained to ask while living.
GL Vía os porcos sen o seu exquisito lacón nin o saboroso e apetitoso xamón. Observaba todos e cada un dos pavos atados con delicadeza, coa moella baixo a ala e, quizais, un colar de deliciosas salchichas. Mesmo o galo estaba deitado sobre unha das bandexas dos lados, patas arriba, coma se implorase clemencia, cousa que o seu espírito valente non se dignara facer mentres vivía.
