   • 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;
