Riddle

Riddle:
I saw six creatures scratch the ground,
Their four lively sisters strutting round;
The house of each, pale skin on shell,
A fine, filament robe hung on a wall,
Well-seen. Though each had been stripped
Of a gossamer skin, none was nude
Or raw with pain; but quickened, covered,
And brought to grass and grain by God
They pecked, strutted, and stripped sod.

(answer: Ten Chickens Ten Fingers)
