    • 1853, Xoán Manuel Pintos, A Gaita Gallega, page 158:
      Inda a nai non pon o pé
      por adentro do portelo
      xa chegan os seus miniños
      «a min, a min berberecho» ;
      cisca uns poucos pola eira
      os rapaces van collé-los
      de gatiñas uns con outros
      levantandose e caendo.
      Dimpois tódo-los da casa
      arredor do fol ou cesto
      non se afartan de gandire
      os birbirichiños frescos;
      Mother hasn't even
      put her foot ahead the gate
      when her children come asking
      «to me, to me, cockle»;
      she scatters a few by the yards
      the kids try to catch them
      squatting, ones and others
      standing and falling.
      Later, everyone at the house,
      around the bag or basket,
      they don't get tired of devouring
      the fresh little cockles;
