Story 272
Fond of Fowl
Once upon a time there lived a monk named Fr. Powell who always wore a robe with
a cowl.
At sin he would scowl and say, "It's foul !" But at food, he would yowl, es•pe•cially
for fowl.
Therefore he kept a bird dog that would growl and a coyote that would howl. And
at night, with the help of an owl, they would go out on the prowl to catch the tasty
water•fowl.

She dries herself off with a towel
And she greets people with a bow
