 But "Je vous n'entends pas" again
 * Was all that he could draw,

Which rais'd new wonder in his brain
 * At this great.

A shepherd with his flock appears,
 * The sheep were large and fat,

Not understanding, he hears,
 * But humbly doffs his hat.

For with earnest looks began
 * To ask whose flock he saw:

At length he heard the poor old man
 * Cry &mdash; "Je vous n'entends pas."
