Original text and translations

English text <pem> All people now in your behalf think of the fate of Sir John Calf. O cruel death, more cunning than a fox, that would not let this Calf live til he became an ox. Oh that might have eaten both brambles and thorns and when he came to his father’s years he might have worn the horns. </poem>
