Robin the Bobbin, the big-bellied Ben, He ate more meat than fourscore men; He ate a cow, he ate a calf, He ate a butcher and a half, He ate a church, he ate a steeple, He ate the priest and all the people! A cow and a calf, An ox and a half, A church and a steeple, And all the good people, And yet he complained That his stomach wasn't full. Try to guess what poem we are going to talk about?

РОБИН-БОББИН Робин-Боббин Кое-как Подкрепился Натощак: Съел теленка Утром рано, Двух овечек И барана, Съел корову Целиком. И прилавок С мясником, Сотню жаворонков в тесте, И коня с телегой вместе, Пять церквей и колоколен - Да еще и недоволен! (Перевод С. Я. Маршака) БАРАБЕК (как нужно дразнить обжору) Робин Бобин Барабек Скушал сорок человек, И корову, и быка, И кривого мясника. И телегу, и дугу; И метлу, и кочергу. Скушал церковь, скушал дом, И кузницу с кузнецом, А потом и говорит: "У меня живот болит". (Перевод К. И. Чуковского) Compare these two translations.
