An Old French Carol~Entre le bœuf et l'âne gris

Between the Ox and the Grey Donkey~Written Around the 13th Century

* Believed to be one of the oldest known carols. The two animals present at the birth of Jesus may have it's origin in the Book of Isaiah 1:3

The ox knows its owner

And the donkey its master’s crib;

But Israel does not know,

My people do not consider.
