+
+  Rock-a-bye, baby, thy cradle is green;
+    Father's a nobleman, mother's a queen;
+  And Betty's a lady, and wears a gold ring;
+  And Harry's a drummer, and drums for the king.
+
+
+
+
+  Hush-a-bye, baby, on the tree-top!
+  When the wind blows, the cradle will rock;
+  When the bough breaks, the cradle will fall,
+  Down will come baby, cradle, and all.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+
+
+  Bye, oh, my baby!
+  When I was a lady,
+  Oh then my poor babe didn't cry!
+  But my baby is weeping
+  For want of good keeping.
+  Oh, I fear my poor baby will die.
+
+
+
+
+  Hush-a-bye, babby, lie still with thy daddy;
+    Thy mammy is gone to the mill
+  To get some wheat, to make some meat,
+    So pray, my dear babby, lie still.
+
+
+
+
+  How many days has my baby to play?
+    Saturday, Sunday, Monday,
+  Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday.
+    Saturday, Sunday, Monday.
+
+
+
+
+  Hush-a-bye, baby,
+    Daddy is near,
+  Mammy's a lady,
+    And that's very clear.
+
+
+
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  Dance to your daddy
+    My bonny laddy,
+  Dance to your ninny,
+    My sweet lamb;
+  You shall have a fishy
+  In a little dishy,
+  And a whirligiggy,
+    And some nice jam.
+
+
+
+
+  Dance, little baby, dance up high,
+  Never mind, baby, mother is nigh;
+  Crow and caper, caper and crow;
+  There, little baby, there you go,
+  Up to the ceiling, down to the ground,
+  Backwards and forwards, round and round;
+  Dance, little baby, and mother will sing,
+  With the merry coral, ding, ding, ding!
+
+
+
+
+  Here we go up, up, up,
+    And here we go down, down, downy,
+  And here we go backwards and forwards,
+    And here we go round, round, roundy.
+
+
+
+
+  Danty baby diddy,
+  What can mammy do wid'e?
+  Sit in her lap,
+  And she'll give you some pap,
+    Danty baby diddy!
+
+
+
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  Bye, baby bunting,
+  Father's gone a-hunting,
+  To get a little rabbit-skin
+  To wrap the baby bunting in.
+
+
+
+
+  Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall,
+  Humpty Dumpty had a great fall,
+  Not all the king's horses, nor all the king's men,
+  Could set Humpty Dumpty up again.
+
+
+
+
+  A Long-tail'd pig,
+    Or a short-tail'd pig,
+    Or a pig without a tail?
+  A sow-pig, or a boar-pig,
+    Or a pig with a curly tail?
+
+
+
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+  Little Tom Tucker
+  Sings for his supper:
+  What shall he eat?
+  White bread and butter.
+  How shall he cut it
+  Without e'er a knife?
+  How will he be married
+  Without e'er a wife?
+
+
+
+
+  Pat a cake, pat a cake, baker's man;
+  So I will, master, as fast as I can;
+  Pat it, and prick it, and mark it with B,
+  And toss it in the oven for baby and me.
+
+
+
+
+  See-saw, Margery-daw,
+    Harry shall have a new master;
+  He shall not have but a penny a-day,
+    Because he won't work any faster.
+
+
+
+
+  The man in the moon
+    Came down too soon,
+  And ask'd his way to Norwich;
+    He went by the south,
+    And burnt his mouth
+  With eating cold plum-porridge.
+
+
+
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  Little Jack Horner
+    Sat in a corner,
+  Eating a Christmas pie;
+    He put in his thumb
+    And pull'd out a plum,
+  And said, "What a brave boy am I!"
+
+
+
+
+  See-saw, sacaradown,
+  Which is the way to London town?
+  One foot up, the other foot down,
+  That is the way to London town.
+
+
+
+
+  One, two, buckle my shoe;
+  Three, four, shut the door;
+  Five, six, pick up sticks;
+  Seven, eight, lay them straight;
+  Nine, ten, a good fat hen;
+  Eleven, twelve, who will delve?
+  Thirteen, fourteen, draw the curtain;
+  Fifteen, sixteen, the maid's in the kitchen;
+  Seventeen, eighteen, she's a-waiting;
+  Nineteen, twenty, my plate's empty;
+  Please, mamma, give me some dinner.
+
+
+
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+  Ride a cock-horse to Banbury Cross,
+  To see an old woman ride on a white horse,
+  With rings on her fingers and bells on her toes,
+  And she shall have music wherever she goes.
+
+
+
+
+  There was an old woman lived under a hill,
+  And if she ben't gone she lives there still.
+
+
+
+
+  1. This little pig went to market;
+  2. This little pig stayed at home;
+  3. This little pig had roast meat;
+  4. This little pig had none;
+  5. This little pig said, "Wee, wee, wee,
+        I can't find my way home!"
+
+[* * *] Addressed to the five toes.
+
+
+
+
+  The girl in the lane,
+  That couldn't speak plain,
+    Cried gobble, gobble,
+        Gobble:
+  The man on the hill,
+  That couldn't stand still,
+    Went hobble, hobble,
+        Hobble.
+
+
+
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+  Bah, bah, black sheep,
+    Have you any wool?
+  Yes, marry, have I,
+    Three bags full:
+  One for my master,
+    And one for my dame,
+  And one for the little boy
+    Who lives in the lane.
+
+
+
+
+  A Dillar a dollar,
+  A ten o'clock scholar,
+  What makes you come so soon?
+  You used to come at ten o'clock,
+  But now you come at noon.
+
+
+
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  One, two, three, four, five,
+  I caught a hare alive;
+  Six, seven, eight, nine, ten,
+  And let it go again.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+
+
+
+  Hark! hark! the dogs do bark,
+    Beggars are coming to town,
+  Some in jags, and some in rags,
+    And some in velvet gown.
+
+
+
+
+  Four little mice sat down to spin,
+  Pussy pass'd by and she peep'd in;
+  "What are you at, my fine little men?"
+  "Making coats for gentlemen."
+  "Shall I come in, and cut off your thread?"
+  "No! no! Miss Pussy, you'll bite off our head."
+
+
+
+
+  To market, to market, to buy a plum bun.
+  Home again, home again, market is done.
+
+
+
+
+  There was a piper who had a cow,
+    But he had no hay to give her;
+  So he took his pipes and played a tune,
+    Consider, old cow, consider!
+
+
+
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  There was an old woman
+  Who lived in a shoe,
+  She had so many children
+  She didn't know what to do;
+  She gave them some broth
+  Without any bread,
+  She whipp'd them all soundly
+  And sent them to bed.
+
+
+
+
+  Lady-bird, lady-bird,
+  Fly away home,
+  Your house is on fire,
+  Your children will burn.
+
+
+
+
+  Rain, rain,
+    Go away,
+  Come again
+    Another day,
+  Little Harry
+    Wants to play.
+
+
+
+
+  The man in the wilderness asked me
+  How many strawberries grew in the sea?
+  I answered him, as I thought good,
+  As many red herrings as grew in the wood.
+
+
+
+
+  Hiccory, diccory, dock,
+  The mouse ran up the clock;
+  The clock struck one,
+  The mouse ran down,
+    Hiccory, diccory, dock.
+
+
+
+
+  Daffy-down-dilly has come up to town,
+  In a yellow petticoat and a green gown.
+
+
+
+
+  Hey, my kitten, my kitten,
+    And hey, my kitten, my deary,
+  Such a sweet pet as this
+    Was neither far nor neary.
+
+
+
+
+  Hey diddle diddle,
+    The cat and the fiddle,
+  The cow jump'd over the moon;
+    The little dog laugh'd
+    To see such craft,
+  And the dish ran away with the spoon.
+
+
+
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  Jack and Jill
+  Went up the hill
+  To fetch a
+  Pail of water;
+  Jack fell down
+  And cracked
+  His crown,
+  And Jill came
+  Tumbling after.
+
+
+
+
+  Two little dogs were basking in the cinders;
+  Two little cats were playing in the windows;
+  When two little mice popped out of a hole,
+  And up to a fine piece of cheese they stole.
+  The two little dogs cried, "Cheese is nice!"
+  But the two little cats jumped down in a trice,
+  And cracked the bones of the two little mice.
+
+
+
+
+  Wee Willie Winkie
+    Runs through the town,
+  Up stairs and down stairs,
+    In his night-gown;
+  Tapping at the window,
+    Crying at the lock,
+  "Are the babes in their bed?
+    For it's now ten o'clock."
+
+
+
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  Little boy blue, come blow me your horn,
+  The sheep's in the meadow, the cow's in the corn;
+  Where is the little boy tending the sheep?
+  Under the haycock fast asleep.
+
+
+
+
+  Pussy-cat, pussy-cat, where have you been?
+  I've been to London to see the queen.
+  Pussy-cat, pussy-cat, what did you there?
+  I frightened a little mouse under the chair.
+
+
+
+
+  High diddle doubt, my candle's out,
+    And my little dame's not at home:
+  So saddle my hog, and bridle my dog,
+    And fetch my little dame home.
+
+
+
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  As I was going up Pippen Hill,
+    Pippen Hill was dirty,
+  There I met a pretty miss,
+    And she dropp'd me a curtsey.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  Little miss, pretty miss!
+    Blessings light upon you!
+  If I had half-a-crown a-day,
+    I'd spend it all upon you.
+
+
+
+
+  I had a little husband, no bigger than my thumb,
+  I put him in a pint-pot, and there I bid him drum;
+  I bought him a little handkerchief to wipe his little nose,
+  And a pair of little garters, to tie his little hose.
+
+
+
+
+  There was a little boy went into a barn,
+    And lay down on some hay;
+  An owl came out and flew about,
+    And the little boy ran away.
+
+
+
+
+    I'll sing you a song,
+    It's not very long:
+  The woodcock and the sparrow,
+  The little dog has burnt his tail,
+  And he shall be hang'd to-morrow.
+
+
+
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  There were three crows sat on a stone,
+        Fal la, la la lal de.
+  Two flew away, and then there was one,
+        Fal la, la la lal de.
+  The other crow finding himself alone,
+        Fal la, la la lal de.
+  He flew away, and then there was none,
+        Fal la, la la lal de.
+
+
+
+
+  1. Let us go to the wood, says this pig;
+  2. What to do there? says that pig;
+  3. To look for my mother, says this pig;
+  4. What to do with her? says that pig;
+  5. To kiss her and love her, says this pig.
+
+[* * * This is said to each finger.
+
+
+
+
+  Cold and raw the north wind doth blow,
+    Bleak in the morning early;
+  All the hills are cover'd with snow,
+    And winter's now come fairly.
+
+
+
+
+  Needles and pins,
+  Needles and pins,
+  When a man marries
+  His trouble begins.
+
+
+
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  Cock a doodle doo!
+    My dame has lost her shoe;
+  Master's broke his fiddling stick,
+    And don't know what to do.
+
+
+
+
+  Diddle, diddle, dumpling, my son John
+  Went to bed with his breeches on;
+  One shoe off, the other shoe on,
+  Diddle, diddle, dumpling, my son John.
+
+
+
+
+  Dingty, diddledy, my mammy's maid,
+  She stole oranges, I am afraid.
+  Some in her pocket, some in her sleeve,
+  She stole oranges, I do believe.
+
+
+
+
+  There was a man of our town,
+    And he was wondrous wise:
+  He jump'd into a bramble-bush,
+    And scratch'd out both his eyes;
+  And when he saw his eyes were out,
+    With all his might and main
+  He jump'd into another bush,
+    And scratch'd them in again.
+
+
+
+
+  Sing! sing! what shall I sing?
+  The cat's run away with the pudding-bag string.
+
+
+
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  Snail! snail! come out of your hole,
+  Or else I'll beat you as black as a coal.
+
+
+
+
+  Two little blackbirds sat upon a hill,
+  One named Jack, the other named Gill;
+  Fly away, Jack; fly away, Gill;
+  Come again, Jack; come again, Gill.
+
+
+
+
+  If all the world was apple-pie,
+    And all the sea was ink,
+  And all the trees were bread and cheese,
+    What should we have for drink?
+  It's enough to make an old man
+    Scratch his head and think.
+
+
+
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  There was an old man,
+  And he had a calf;
+    And that's half:
+  He took him out of the stall,
+  And put him on the wall;
+    And that's all.
+
+
+
+
+  Mary, Mary,
+    Quite contrary,
+  How does your garden grow?
+    Silver bells,
+    And cockle-shells,
+  And pretty maids all of a row.
+
+
+
+
+  We're all dry with drinking on't,
+    We're all dry with drinking on't;
+  The piper kiss'd the fiddler's wife,
+    And I can't sleep for thinking on't.
+
+
+
+
+  I had a little wife, the prettiest ever seen,

+
+  Little Bo-peep fell fast asleep,

+  When she awoke, she found it a joke,
+    For still they all were fleeting.
+
+  Then up she took her little crook,
+    Determin'd for to find them;
+  She found them indeed, but it made her heart bleed,
+    For they'd left their tails behind them.

+  It happen'd one day, as Bo-peep did stray
+    Unto a meadow hard by:
+  There she espied their tails side by side,
+    All hung on a tree to dry.
+
+  She heaved a sigh, and wiped her eye,
+    And over the hillocks she raced;
+  And tried what she could, as a shepherdess should,
+    That each tail should be properly placed.

+    To get myself a wife:
+  The roads were so bad,
+    And the lanes were so narrow,
+  I was forced to bring my wife home
+    In a wheelbarrow.
+  The wheelbarrow broke,
+    And my wife had a fall,
+  Down came the wheelbarrow,
+    My wife, and all.

+  Old Mother Goose, when

+  Would ride through the air
+    On a very fine gander.
+
+  Mother Goose had a house,
+    'Twas built in a wood,
+  Where an owl at the door
+    For sentinel stood.
+
+  This is her son Jack,
+    A plain-looking lad,
+  He is not very good,
+    Nor yet very bad.
+
+  She sent him to market,
+    A live goose he bought;
+  "Here, mother," says he,
+    "It will not go for nought."
+
+  Jack's goose and her gander
+    Grew very fond,
+  They'd both eat together,
+    Or swim in one pond.
+
+  Jack found one morning,
+    As I have been told,
+  His goose had laid him
+    An egg of pure gold.
+
+  Jack rode to his mother,
+    The news for to tell;
+  She call'd him a good boy,
+    And said it was well.
+
+  Jack sold his gold egg
+    To a rogue of a Jew,
+  Who cheated him out of
+    The half of his due.
+
+  Then Jack went a-courting
+    A lady so gay,
+  As fair as the lily
+    And sweet as the May.
+
+  The Jew and the Squire
+    Came close at his back,
+  And began to belabour
+    The sides of poor Jack.
+
+  They threw the gold egg
+    In the midst of the sea;
+  But Jack he jump'd in,
+    And got it back presently.
+
+  The Jew got the goose,
+    Which he vow'd he would kill,
+  Resolving at once
+    His pockets to fill.
+
+  Jack's mother came in,
+    And caught the goose soon,
+  And, mounting its back,
+    Flew up to the moon.

+
+
+SIMPLE STORIES.
+
+
+Good morning, little boy; how do you do? Bring your little stool and sit
+down by me, for I have a great deal to tell you.
+
+I hope you have been a good boy, and read all the pretty words I wrote
+for you before. You have, you say; you have read them till you are
+tired, and you want some more new lessons. Come, then, sit down. Now you
+and I will tell stories.

+JANUARY.
+
+
+It is very cold. It snows. It freezes. There are no leaves upon the
+trees. The oil is frozen, and the milk is frozen, and the river is
+frozen, and everything in the fields is frozen.
+
+All the boys are sliding: you must learn to slide. There is a man
+skating. How fast he goes! You shall have a pair of skates. Take care!
+there is a hole in the ice. Come in. It is four o'clock. It is dark.
+Light the candles: and, Ralph! get some wood from the wood-house, and
+get some coals, and make a very good fire.
+
+Now get the large picture-book, and let us look at the pretty pictures,
+and I will tell you stories about them.

+FEBRUARY.
+
+
+It is still very cold, but the days are longer, and there is the yellow
+crocus coming up, and the mezereon tree is in blossom, and there are
+some white snow-drops peeping up their little heads. Pretty white
+snow-drop, with a green stalk! May I gather it? Yes, you may; but you
+must always ask leave before you gather a flower.
+
+When spring comes again there will be green leaves and flowers, daisies
+and pinks, and violets and roses; and there will be young lambs, and
+warm weather. Come again, spring!
+
+What a noise the rooks make! Caw! caw! caw! and how busy they are! They
+are going to build their nests. There is a man ploughing the field. In a
+few days the farmer will sow it with barley. Wheat is sown in the
+autumn. In some places oxen draw the plough instead of horses.

+
+Now the wind blows. It will blow such a little fellow as you away,

+out your handkerchief. Throw it up. The wind blows it this way. The wind
+comes from the north. The wind is north. It is a cold wind. The wind
+was west yesterday: then it was warmer.
+
+Here is a lady-bird upon a leaf. It is red, and has black spots. Ah! it
+has wings: it has flown away. There is a black beetle. Catch it. How
+fast it runs! Where is it gone? Into the ground. It makes a little hole
+and runs into the ground.
+
+There are some young lambs. Poor things! how they creep under the hedge.
+What is this flower? A primrose. Where is Harry? He is sitting under a
+tree.

+Now the birds sing, and the trees are in blossom, and flowers are coming

+sun shines. There is a rainbow. Oh, what fine colours! Pretty bright
+rainbow! No, you cannot catch it; it is in the sky. It is going away.
+It fades. It is quite gone. I hear the cuckoo. He says, Cuckoo! cuckoo!
+He is come to tell us it is spring. Do you know the nursery rhyme about
+the cuckoo?
+
+  The cuckoo's a bonny bird,
+    He sings as he flies;
+  He brings us good tidings,
+    And tells us no lies.
+  He sucks little birds' eggs
+    To make his voice clear,
+  And always sings "Cuckoo"
+    When spring-time is near.

+
+
+Oh, pleasant May! Let us walk out in the fields. The hawthorn is in
+blossom. Let us go and get some out of the hedges. And here are daisies,
+and cowslips, and crow-flowers. We will make a nosegay. Smell, it is
+very sweet! What has Harry got? He has got a nest of young birds. He has
+been climbing a high tree for them. Poor little birds! they have no
+feathers. Keep them warm. You must feed them with a quill. You must give
+them bread and milk. They are young goldfinches. They will be very
+pretty when they have got their red head and yellow wings.
+
+We will drink tea out of doors. Bring the tea-things. It is very
+pleasant. But here is no table. What must we do? Oh, here is a large
+round stump of a tree! it will do very well for a table. But we have no
+chairs. Here is a seat of turf, and a bank almost covered with violets:
+we shall sit here, and Harry may lie on the soft grass carpet.

+
+
+What noise is that? It is the mower in the field whetting his scythe. He
+is going to cut down the grass. And will he cut down all the flowers
+too? Yes, everything. Now we must make hay. Where is your fork and rake?
+Spread the hay. Now make it up into cocks. Now tumble on the haycock.
+There, cover Harry up with hay. How sweet the hay smells! Oh, it is very
+hot. No matter; you should make hay while the sun shines. You must work
+well. See! all the lads and lasses are at work. They must have some
+beer, and bread and cheese. Now put the hay in the cart. Will you ride
+in the cart? Huzza!
+
+It is a pleasant evening. Come here, Harry: look at the sun. The sun is
+in the west. Yes, little boys say he is going to bed. How pretty the sun
+looks! We can look at him now; he is not so bright as he was at
+dinner-time, when he was up high in the sky. And how beautiful the
+clouds are! There are crimson clouds, and purple and gold-coloured
+clouds. Now we can see only half of the sun. Now he is gone.

+It is very hot, indeed, now, and the grass and flowers are all burnt,
+for it has not rained a great while. You must water your garden, else
+the plants will die. Where is the watering-pot? Let us go under the
+trees. It is shady there: it is not so hot. Come into the arbour. There
+is a bee upon the honey-suckle. He is getting honey. He will carry it to
+the hive.
+
+Will you go and bathe in the water? Here is the river. It is not deep.
+Pull off your clothes. Jump in. Do not be afraid. Pop your head in. Now
+try to swim. Do you see that little frog? You should swim just as the
+little frog swims.

+Now you have been in the water long enough. Come out, and let me dry you

+Let us go into the corn-fields to see if the corn is almost ripe. Yes,
+it is quite brown; it is ripe. Farmer Diggory! you must bring a sharp
+sickle and cut down the corn; it is ripe. Now it must be tied up in
+sheaves. Now put a great many sheaves together, and make a shock.
+
+There is a poor old woman picking up some ears of corn; and a poor
+little girl with her. They are gleaning. Give them your handful, Harry.
+Take it, poor woman, it will help to make you a loaf.
+
+Look, there are black clouds. How fast they move along! Now they have
+hid the sun. There is a little bit of blue sky still. Now it is all
+covered with black clouds. It is very dark, like night. It will rain
+soon. Now it begins. What large drops! The ducks are very glad, but the
+little birds are not glad; they go and shelter themselves under the
+trees. Now the rain is over. It was only a shower. Now the flowers smell
+sweet, and the sun shines, and the little birds sing again, and it is
+not so hot as it was before it rained.

+Hark! somebody is letting off a gun! They are shooting the poor birds.
+Here is a bird dropped down just at your feet. It is all bloody. Poor
+thing! how it flutters! Its wing is broken. It cannot fly any further.
+It is going to die. What bird is it? It is a partridge. Are you not
+sorry, Harry? It was alive a little while ago.
+
+Bring the ladder, and set it against the tree. Now bring a basket. We
+must gather apples. No, you cannot go up the ladder; you must have a
+little basket, and pick up apples under the tree. Shake the tree. Down
+they come. How many have you got? We will have an apple-dumpling. Come,
+you must help to carry the apples into the apple-chamber. Apples make
+cyder. You shall have some baked pears and bread for supper, and some
+cyder. Are these apples? No, they are quinces; they will make marmalade.
+Do not be in such haste, little boy; you shall have some cyder directly.
+You must not drink much.

+The leaves are falling off the trees now, and the flowers are all gone.
+No, here is an African marigold, and a China-aster, and a Michaelmas
+daisy. And here are a few roses left.
+
+Will you have any nuts? Fetch the nut-crackers. Peel this walnut. I will
+make you a little boat of the walnut-shell, and you can swim it in a
+pan. We must get the grapes, or else the birds will eat them all. Here
+is a bunch of black grapes. Here is a bunch of white ones. Which will
+you have? Grapes make wine.
+
+What bird have you got there? It is dead, but it is very pretty. It has
+a scarlet eye, and red, and green, and purple feathers. It is very
+large. It is a pheasant. He is very good to eat. We will pull off his
+feathers, and tell Betty Cook to roast him. Here is a hare too. Poor
+puss! the hounds did catch her.

+look at pictures. I wonder what poor little boys do that have no fire to
+go to, and no shoes and stockings to keep them warm, and no victuals to
+eat? Here is a halfpenny, Harry, and when you see one of those poor
+boys you shall give it to him. He will say, "Thank you, you are very
+good!" and then he will buy a roll.
+
+Where are Billy, and Harry, and Betsy? Now tell me who can spell best.

+It is to make mince-pies. Do you love mince-pies? Oh, they are very
+good!
+
+Look! a pretty little robin is flying against the window. Open the
+window. Well, what do you want, little robin? Only a few crumbs of
+bread. Give him some crumbs, and he will hop, hop about the parlour, and
+sit upon the top of the screen, and sing--oh, he will sing all day
+long! Now pray do not let that wicked cat take him. No, puss! you must
+go and catch mice; you shall not eat poor robin.

+THE IDLE BOY.
+
+
+There was a little boy; he was not a big boy, for if he had been a big
+boy I suppose he would have been wiser; but this was a little boy, not
+higher than the table, and his papa and mamma sent him to school. It was
+a very pleasant morning; the sun shone, and the birds sung on the trees.
+Now this little boy did not much love his book, for he was but a silly
+little boy, as I told you; and he had a great mind to play instead of
+going to school. And he saw a [Illustration]
+
+bee flying about, first upon one flower, and then upon another; so he
+said, "Pretty bee! will you come and play with me?" But the bee said,
+"No, I must not be idle; I must go and gather honey." Then the little
+boy met a dog, and he said, "Dog! will you play with me?" But the dog
+said, "No, I must not be idle; I am going to catch a hare for my
+master's dinner: I must make haste and catch it." Then the little boy
+went by a hay-rick, and he saw a bird pulling some hay out of the
+hay-rick, and he said, "Bird! will you come and play with me?" But the
+bird said, "No, I must not be idle; I must get some hay to build my nest
+with, and some moss, and some wool." So the bird flew away. Then the
+little boy saw a horse, and he said, "Horse! will you play with me?" But
+the horse said, "No, I must not be idle; I must go and plough, or else
+there will be no corn to make bread of." Then the little boy thought
+with himself, "What! is nobody idle? then little boys must not be idle
+neither." So he made haste, and went to school, and learned his lesson
+very well, and the master said he was a good boy.

+HARRY'S LADDER TO LEARNING.
+
+PART VI.
+
+HARRY'S COUNTRY WALK.
+
+
+
+
+COUNTRY WALK.
+
+
+[Illustration]
+
+Early one morning during last summer, Harry and I put on our hats, and
+taking some cake in our pockets for lunch set out for a good long walk.
+First we went through the Home Meadow, where the tall elm-trees are, and
+then through the gate at the bottom of the valley into the corn-fields.
+The sun was shining bright and clear, and a lark was singing high up in
+the blue sky almost beyond our sight. Harry and I stood still to watch
+its descent, and after many minutes we saw it alight near a tuft of
+grass by the hedge-side. We walked a little nearer, and then we found
+that there was another bird there with some young ones; so we thought
+that this lark had been singing its long, sweet song in the air to
+cheer its mate, who was feeding their little ones in the nest.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+We then walked on, and soon came to the skirts of the wood, through
+which runs a little stream. We thought there must be some one in the
+wood, for we heard a smart tapping sound, like the noise of a little
+hammer. I climbed on the top of a hedge-bank, and, after a little while,
+found that the noise came from over our heads. On the trunk of a tree
+were two wood-peckers pecking with their long beaks at the bark of a
+fir-tree, in which they find a number of little insects, which serve
+them for their food. I lifted Harry up to see them at their work, but he
+did not frighten them, and at some long way off we could still hear them
+tapping away.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+Just at the corner of the wood, as we were turning round by the side of
+the fence, we saw two hares and a rabbit feeding among the clover; one
+of them pricked up his ears and looked at us for a moment, and then all
+of them ran away across the field much faster than Harry, who tried all
+he could to catch them.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+We had not walked much further when we heard a great chattering, and
+when we came to a young beech-tree close by the stile, we soon found the
+cause of the noise. About two dozen or more of a little bird called the
+titmouse had all perched on one tree, where they were pecking, and
+fighting, and love-making, and noise-making, all at the same time.
+Except the noise made by sparrows when they go to bed on a summer's
+evening, I never heard the like.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+While I was amusing myself by watching the titmice, Harry, who had
+rambled on a little way, came running back to ask me what the funny
+thing could be that he had found. It was a mole that had been caught in
+a trap, and was dangling in the air with a swarm of bees around. I told
+Harry that the moles are blind, or nearly so, and that they live under
+the ground, and do great good to the farmers by eating the slugs and
+other things that destroy the corn; but that they turn up such great
+mounds of earth when making their tunnels, that the farmers are often
+glad to get rid of them, and therefore set traps to kill them.
+
+In the next field we came to, the young wheat had grown up higher than
+my knees, and Harry was greatly pleased at running down the furrows and
+making the blades of corn bend before him. Presently he stopped and
+peeped through an opening, whence he discovered a whole covey of
+partridges, the two old birds and seven young ones; they all rose with a
+whirring noise, and flew into the field we had just left.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+Soon after the partridges had flown away, Harry was delighted to hear
+the well-known voice of the cuckoo; it sounded so near us that we both
+started at the first voice, and we soon found out where the cuckoo was.
+Like a lazy tyrant, instead of making a house for himself, the cuckoo
+takes the first little bird's nest he can find, and turns the poor
+occupant away. When we reached the tree where the cuckoo was, we saw it
+sitting on a small nest throwing out the eggs of a poor little bird, who
+was screaming in anger at the intruder.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+When I told Harry what the cuckoo had been doing, he wanted to throw a
+stone at it, but I told him that this cuckoo was only doing what all
+other cuckoos did, and that the poor little bird would soon build itself
+another nest. As we walked on, still by the side of the wood, Harry saw
+something jumping about in the boughs of a tree; and presently another
+followed it: they were two squirrels, with their long bushy tails curled
+over their backs, and their ears pricked up to hear the slightest noise.
+As soon as they saw Harry looking at them they both leaped away, and we
+lost them in the branches of a large oak. To look after the squirrels
+we had climbed over the hedge, so we were walking a little way in the
+wood. Presently I heard the call of a pheasant; and as we walked
+further, we came to some brush-wood, under which were two old birds and
+their young ones. They all flew away at our approach; but the old
+cock-pheasant left two of his tail-feathers in the brush-wood, which
+Harry soon picked up to decorate his hat with.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+The next bird that caught our notice was a fly-catcher. It was sitting
+on a bramble catching bees and flies, and so intently was it watching
+for them, that it did not even notice our presence, till Harry tried to
+put his hand on it, but then away it flew with a fine chattering.
+
+We now left the wood, and taking the foot-path to the left, went along
+till we came to the road. Just by the stile sat a girl, who had been
+gathering dried sticks in the wood, where her father was cutting down
+trees. She had tied up the sticks into a bundle, and was sitting on them
+to rest herself, because they were so heavy. She asked me to help her to
+put them on her head; this I did, and then she thanked me, and trudged
+on, singing as merrily as a lark in the sky.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+Now we came to a bridge over a wide river. I mounted Harry astride the
+parapet, and there we stopped for some minutes to look at the boats as
+they passed under us, and to watch two swans which were sailing up the
+river with their great wings spread out for sails, and their necks so
+proudly bent that they looked like the king and queen of the river.
+Harry would have stayed for hours to look at them, but we could not stop
+long.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+We next turned down the pathway by the river-side, and soon we came to
+the wide marshes, which are only two miles off the sea. There we were
+standing under a willow, watching for the fish which were swimming down
+the river in little shoals, when we heard a splash on the opposite bank;
+it was an otter that had dived into the river, and caught a fish, with
+which we saw it climb on to the bank again. Men used to hunt the otter
+with dogs and spears; and sometimes otters have been trained to catch
+fish and bring them to land, but we do not often find them in England.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+As we walked on by the river-side, we noticed a hawk flying swiftly over
+us; afterwards we saw him balance himself on his wings, and keep for
+many minutes in exactly the same place. Presently, with a loud scream,
+he darted down into some rushes a little way before us, and then we
+heard a most furious quacking, as if there were fifty ducks there. We
+ran on and saw a drake flying at the hawk and pecking at its wings, and
+the duck, quacking in the utmost alarm, tried to get all her little
+ducklings under her wings; but, alas! one little truant ran into the
+weeds, and the hawk caught it in his claws, and, in spite of all the
+efforts of the poor drake, flew away with it.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+Harry was greatly excited at this scene, and cried to see the hawk carry
+away the poor little duck; but he soon laughed again, for as he watched
+the robber in his flight through the air, he saw a number of little
+birds fly after him,--sparrows, swallows, finches, all chirping at him
+and mocking him; then a tribe of bigger birds, blackbirds, magpies,
+rooks, and jays, flew after him also; and as the hawk could not fly fast
+with the duckling in his claws, they soon overtook him, and we saw them
+peck at his wings and his tail, and pull his feathers out; and they all
+screamed and chattered at him till at last the hawk let the poor
+duckling down into the marsh, and then, rising much higher than the
+other birds, flew away so quickly that he was out of sight in a minute.
+Harry clapped his hands with delight to see the hawk thus treated, and
+said that he was rightly served.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+Now we walked on again by the river-side. The swallows skimmed along
+the surface of the water, and caught the insects that hovered over it,
+and now and then a sea-gull came with its great wings, and diving into
+the river, bore away a poor fish in its beak to swallow at its leisure.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+Then we came close to a solemn-looking heron, who stood so still that
+we could hardly tell if he were alive, till we saw him suddenly dive his
+head in a pool of water and pull out a frog, which he swallowed at one
+mouthful; and then he stood as still and solemn as ever. He flew away
+when we walked near him, flapping his immense wings slowly, and giving a
+mournful cry.
+
+Then we turned away from the river, and took a path across the meadows,
+where Harry ran about and gathered cowslips and buttercups until he was
+quite tired; therefore it happened very luckily that just as we reached
+the gate into the high-road, who should we see but Uncle George driving
+past in his gig! He stopped his horse when he saw us, and both Harry and
+I were very glad to have a nice ride home with him.
+
+In the evening Harry and I went for a stroll in the fields near home,
+and presently we came to one where the sheep were feeding. The shepherd
+was just calling them home to be put in the fold, and we were very much
+amused to see the antics of some of the young lambs that would skip
+about instead of going to bed with their mothers. This put me in mind to
+tell Harry Mrs. Barbauld's story about
+
+
+THE SILLY LITTLE LAMB.
+
+There was once a shepherd, who had a great many sheep and lambs. He took
+a great deal of care of them, and gave them sweet fresh grass to eat,
+and clear water to drink; and if they were sick he was very good to
+them; and when they climbed up a steep hill, and the lambs were tired,
+he used to carry them in his arms; and when they were all eating their
+suppers in the field, he used to sit upon a stile, and play them a
+tune, and sing to them. And so they were the happiest sheep and lambs in
+the whole world. But every night this shepherd used to pen them up in a
+fold. Do you know what a sheepfold is? Well, I will tell you. It is a
+place like the court; but instead of pales there are hurdles, which are
+made of sticks that will bend, such as osier twigs; and they are twisted
+and made very fast, so that nothing can creep in, and nothing can get
+out. Well, and so every night, when it grew dark and cold, the shepherd
+called all his flock, sheep and lambs, together, and drove them into the
+fold, and penned them up, and there they lay as snug and warm and
+comfortable as could be, and nothing could get in to hurt them, and the
+dogs lay round on the outside to guard them, and to bark if any body
+came near; and in the morning the shepherd unpenned the fold, and let
+them all out again.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+Now they were all very happy, as I told you, and loved the shepherd
+dearly that was so good to them--all except one foolish little lamb. And
+this lamb did not like to be shut up every night in the fold; and she
+came to her mother, who was a wise old sheep, and said to her, "I wonder
+why we are shut up so every night? the dogs are not shut up, and why
+should we be shut up? I think it is very hard, and I will get away if I
+can, I am resolved; for I like to run about where I please, and I think
+it is very pleasant in the woods by moonlight." Then the old sheep
+said to her, "You are very silly, you little lamb, you had better stay
+in the fold. The shepherd is so good to us, that we should always do as
+he bids us; and if you wander about by yourself, I dare say you will
+come to some harm." "I dare say not," said the little lamb. And so when
+the evening came, and the shepherd called them all to come into the
+fold, she would not come, but crept slily under a hedge and hid herself;
+and when the rest of the lambs were all in the fold and fast asleep,
+she came out, and jumped, and frisked, and danced about; and she got out
+of the field, and got into a forest full of trees, and a very fierce
+wolf came rushing out of a cave and howled very loud. Then the silly
+lamb wished she had been shut up in the fold, but the fold was a great
+way off. And the wolf saw her and seized her, and carried her away to a
+dismal den; and there the wolf had two cubs, and the wolf said to them,
+"Here, I have brought you a young fat lamb." And so the cubs took her,
+and growled over her a little while, and then ate her up.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+Harry said that was a very naughty lamb.
+
+It now began to be quite dark, so Harry and I returned home. Then we had
+a long talk about what we had seen during the day; and then Harry had
+his bread and milk for supper, and then he said his prayers and went to
+bed.

+phrase "Project Gutenberg" is associated) is accessed, displayed,
+performed, viewed, copied or distributed:
+
+  This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere in the United States and
+  most other parts of the world at no cost and with almost no
+  restrictions whatsoever. You may copy it, give it away or re-use it
+  under the terms of the Project Gutenberg License included with this
+  eBook or online at www.gutenberg.org. If you are not located in the

+  you are located before using this eBook.
+
+1.E.2. If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is
+derived from texts not protected by U.S. copyright law (does not
+contain a notice indicating that it is posted with permission of the
+copyright holder), the work can be copied and distributed to anyone in

+
+1.F.
+
+1.F.1. Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
+effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
+works not protected by U.S. copyright law in creating the Project
+Gutenberg-tm collection. Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm
+electronic works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may
+contain "Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate
+or corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other
+intellectual property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or
+other medium, a computer virus, or computer codes that damage or
+cannot be read by your equipment.
+
+1.F.2. LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right

+received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium
+with your written explanation. The person or entity that provided you
+with the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in
+lieu of a refund. If you received the work electronically, the person
+or entity providing it to you may choose to give you a second
+opportunity to receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund. If
+the second copy is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing
+without further opportunities to fix the problem.
+
+1.F.4. Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth
+in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you 'AS-IS', WITH NO

+or any Project Gutenberg-tm work, (b) alteration, modification, or
+additions or deletions to any Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any
+Defect you cause.
+
+Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of
+computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It
+exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations
+from people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future
+generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see
+Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation information page at
+www.gutenberg.org
+
+Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation
+
+The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit
+501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
+state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
+Revenue Service. The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
+number is 64-6221541. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent permitted by

+
+Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND
+DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular
+state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To
+donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate
+
+Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm concept of a library of electronic works that could be
+freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
+distributed Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of
+volunteer support.
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in
+the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not
+necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper
+edition.
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search
+facility: www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.

+higher than the table, and his papa and mamma sent him to school. It was
+a very pleasant morning; the sun shone, and the birds sung on the trees.
+Now this little boy did not much love his book, for he was but a silly
+little boy, as I told you; and he had a great mind to play instead of
+going to school. And he saw a<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_205" id="Page_205">[Pg 205]</a></span>
+bee flying about, first upon one flower, and then upon another; so he
+said, &ldquo;Pretty bee! will you come and play with me?&rdquo; But the bee said,
+&ldquo;No, I must not be idle; I must go and gather honey.&rdquo; Then the little
+boy met a dog, and he said, &ldquo;Dog! will you play with me?&rdquo; But the dog
+said, &ldquo;No, I must not be idle; I am going to catch a hare for my
+master&rsquo;s dinner: I<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_206" id="Page_206">[Pg 206]</a></span> must make haste and catch it.&rdquo; Then the little boy
+went by a hay-rick, and he saw a bird pulling some hay out of the
+hay-rick, and he said, &ldquo;Bird! will you come and play with me?&rdquo; But the
+bird said, &ldquo;No, I must not be idle; I must get some hay to build my nest
+with, and some moss, and some wool.&rdquo; So the bird flew away. Then the
+little boy saw a horse, and he said, &ldquo;Horse! will you play with me?&rdquo; But
+the horse said, &ldquo;No, I must not be idle; I must go and plough, or else
+there will be no corn to make bread of.&rdquo; Then the little boy thought
+with himself, &ldquo;What! is nobody idle? then little boys must not be idle
+neither.&rdquo; So he made haste, and went to school, and learned his lesson

+
+<p><br />ARLY one morning during last summer, Harry and I put on our hats, and
+taking some cake in our pockets for lunch set out for a good long walk.
+First we went through the Home Meadow, where the tall elm-trees are, and
+then through the gate at the bottom of the valley into the corn-fields.
+The sun was shining bright and clear, and a lark was singing high up in
+the blue sky<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_212" id="Page_212">[Pg 212]</a></span> almost beyond our sight. Harry and I stood still to watch
+its descent, and after many minutes we saw it alight near a tuft of
+grass by the hedge-side. We walked a little nearer, and then we found
+that there was another bird there with some young ones; so we thought
+that this lark had been singing its long, sweet song in the air<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_213" id="Page_213">[Pg 213]</a></span> to
+cheer its mate, who was feeding their little ones in the nest.</p>
+
+<div class="figcenter" style="width: 400px;">
+<img src="images/illus-0213-1-small.jpg" width="400" height="268" alt="" title="lark" />
+</div>
+
+<p>We then walked on, and soon came to the skirts of the wood, through
+which runs a little stream. We thought there must be some one in the
+wood, for we heard a smart tapping sound, like the noise of a little
+hammer. I climbed on the top of a hedge-bank, and, after a little while,
+found that the noise came from over our heads. On the trunk of a tree
+were two wood-peckers pecking with their long beaks at the bark of a
+fir-tree, in which they find a number of little insects, which serve
+them for their food. I lifted Harry up to see them at their work, but he
+did not frighten them, and at some long way off we could still hear them
+tapping away.</p>
+

+
+<p>Just at the corner of the wood, as we were turning round by the side of
+the<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_214" id="Page_214">[Pg 214]</a></span> fence, we saw two hares and a rabbit feeding among the clover; one
+of them pricked<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_215" id="Page_215">[Pg 215]</a></span> up his ears and looked at us for a moment, and then all
+of them ran away across the field much faster than Harry, who tried all
+he could to catch them.</p>
+
+<div class="figcenter" style="width: 400px;">
+<img src="images/illus-0216-1-small.jpg" width="400" height="267" alt="" title="rabbits" />
+</div>
+
+<p>We had not walked much further when we heard a great chattering, and
+when we came to a young beech-tree close by the stile, we soon found the
+cause of the noise.<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_216" id="Page_216">[Pg 216]</a></span> About two dozen or more of a little bird called the
+titmouse had all perched on one tree, where they were pecking, and
+fighting,<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_217" id="Page_217">[Pg 217]</a></span> and love-making, and noise-making, all at the same time.
+Except the noise made by sparrows when they go to bed on a summer&rsquo;s
+evening, I never heard the like.</p>

+
+<p>While I was amusing myself by watching the titmice, Harry, who had
+rambled on a little way, came running back to ask me what the funny
+thing could be that he had<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_218" id="Page_218">[Pg 218]</a></span> found. It was a mole that had been caught in
+a trap, and was dangling in the air with a swarm of bees around. I told
+Harry that the moles are blind, or nearly so, and that they live under
+the ground, and do great good to the farmers by eating the slugs and
+other things that destroy the corn; but that they turn up such great
+mounds of earth when making their tunnels, that the farmers are often
+glad to get rid of them, and therefore set traps to kill them.</p>
+
+<div class="figcenter" style="width: 400px;">
+<img src="images/illus-0218-1-small.jpg" width="400" height="241" alt="" title="dangling in the air" />
+</div>
+
+<p>In the next field we came to, the young wheat had grown up higher than
+my knees, and Harry was greatly pleased at running down the furrows and
+making the blades of corn bend before him. Presently he stopped and
+peeped through an opening, whence he discovered a whole covey of
+partridges, the two old birds and seven young ones; they all rose with a
+whirring noise,<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_219" id="Page_219">[Pg 219]</a></span> and flew into the field we had just left.</p>
+
+<div class="figcenter" style="width: 400px;">
+<img src="images/illus-0220-1-small.jpg" width="400" height="262" alt="" title="partridges" />
+</div>
+
+<p>Soon after the partridges had flown away, Harry was delighted to hear
+the well-known voice of the cuckoo; it sounded so near us that we both
+started at the first voice, and we soon found out where the cuckoo was.
+Like a lazy tyrant, instead of making a house for himself, the cuckoo<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_220" id="Page_220">[Pg 220]</a></span>
+takes the first little bird&rsquo;s nest he can find, and turns the poor
+occupant away. When we reached the tree where the cuckoo was, we saw it
+sitting on a small nest throwing out the eggs of a poor little bird, who
+was screaming in anger at the intruder.</p>
+
+<div class="figcenter" style="width: 400px;">
+<img src="images/illus-0221-1-small.jpg" width="400" height="248" alt="" title="cuckoo" />
+</div>
+
+<div class="figcenter" style="width: 238px;">
+<img src="images/illus-0222-1-small.jpg" width="238" height="400" alt="" title="squirrel" />
+</div>
+
+<p>When I told Harry what the cuckoo had been doing, he wanted to throw a
+stone at it, but I told him that this cuckoo<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_221" id="Page_221">[Pg 221]</a></span> was only doing what all
+other cuckoos did, and that the poor little bird would soon build itself
+another nest. As we walked on, still by the side of the wood, Harry saw
+something jumping about in the boughs of a tree; and presently another
+followed it: they were two squirrels, with their long bushy tails curled
+over their backs, and their ears pricked up to hear the slightest noise.
+As soon as they saw Harry looking at them they both leaped away, and we
+lost them in the branches of a large<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_222" id="Page_222">[Pg 222]</a></span> oak. To look after the squirrels
+we had climbed over the hedge, so we were walking a little way in the
+wood. Presently I heard the call of a pheasant; and as we walked
+further, we came to some brush-wood, under which were two old birds and<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_223" id="Page_223">[Pg 223]</a></span>
+their young ones. They all flew away at our approach; but the old
+cock-pheasant left two of his tail-feathers in the brush-wood, which
+Harry soon picked up to decorate his hat with.</p>
+
+<div class="figcenter" style="width: 400px;">
+<img src="images/illus-0223-1-small.jpg" width="400" height="334" alt="" title="pheasants" />
+</div>
+
+<p>The next bird that caught our notice was a fly-catcher. It was sitting
+on a bramble catching bees and flies, and so<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_224" id="Page_224">[Pg 224]</a></span> intently was it watching
+for them, that it did not even notice our presence, till Harry tried to
+put his hand on it, but then away it flew with a fine chattering.</p>
+
+<div class="figcenter" style="width: 366px;">
+<img src="images/illus-0224-1-small.jpg" width="366" height="400" alt="" title="flycatcher" />
+</div>
+
+<p>We now left the wood, and taking the foot-path to the left, went along
+till we came to the road. Just by the stile sat a girl, who had been
+gathering dried sticks in the wood, where her father was cutting down
+trees. She had tied up the sticks into a bundle, and was sitting on them
+to rest herself, because they were so heavy. She asked me to help her to
+put them on her head; this I did, and then she thanked me, and trudged
+on, singing as merrily as a lark in the sky.</p>
+
+<div class="figcenter" style="width: 309px;">
+<img src="images/illus-0226-1-small.jpg" width="309" height="400" alt="" title="sat a girl" />
+</div>
+
+<p>Now we came to a bridge over a wide river. I mounted Harry astride the
+parapet, and there we stopped for some minutes to look at the boats as
+they passed under<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_225" id="Page_225">[Pg 225]</a></span> us, and to watch two swans which were sailing up the
+river with their great wings<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_226" id="Page_226">[Pg 226]</a></span> spread out for sails, and their necks so
+proudly bent that they looked like the king and queen of the river.
+Harry would have stayed for hours to look at them, but we could not stop
+long.</p>
+
+<div class="figcenter" style="width: 400px;">
+<img src="images/illus-0227-1-small.jpg" width="400" height="302" alt="" title="swans" />
+</div>
+
+<p>We next turned down the pathway by the river-side, and soon we came to
+the<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_227" id="Page_227">[Pg 227]</a></span> wide marshes, which are only two miles off the sea. There we were
+standing under a willow, watching for the fish which were swimming down
+the river in little shoals, when we heard a splash on the opposite bank;
+it was an otter that had dived into the river, and caught a fish, with
+which we saw it climb on to the bank again. Men<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_228" id="Page_228">[Pg 228]</a></span> used to hunt the otter
+with dogs and spears; and sometimes otters have been trained to catch
+fish and bring them to land, but we do not often find them in England.</p>
+
+<div class="figcenter" style="width: 400px;">
+<img src="images/illus-0228-1-small.jpg" width="400" height="274" alt="" title="otters" />
+</div>
+
+<p>As we walked on by the river-side, we noticed a hawk flying swiftly over
+us; afterwards we saw him balance himself on his wings, and keep for
+many minutes in exactly the same place. Presently, with a loud scream,
+he darted down into some rushes a little way before us, and then we
+heard a most furious quacking, as if there were fifty ducks there. We
+ran on and saw a drake flying at the hawk and pecking at its wings, and
+the duck, quacking in the utmost alarm, tried to get all her little
+ducklings under her wings; but, alas! one little truant ran into the
+weeds, and the hawk caught it in his claws, and, in spite of all the
+efforts of the poor drake, flew away with it.<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_229" id="Page_229">[Pg 229]</a></span></p>
+
+<div class="figcenter" style="width: 400px;">
+<img src="images/illus-0230-1-small.jpg" width="400" height="359" alt="" title="hawks" />
+</div>
+
+<p>Harry was greatly excited at this scene, and cried to see the hawk carry
+away the poor little duck; but he soon laughed again, for as he watched
+the robber in his flight through the air, he saw a number of little
+birds fly after him,&mdash;sparrows, swallows,<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_230" id="Page_230">[Pg 230]</a></span> finches, all chirping at him
+and mocking him; then a tribe of bigger birds, blackbirds, magpies,
+rooks, and jays, flew after him also; and as the hawk could not fly fast
+with the duckling in his claws, they soon overtook him, and we saw them
+peck at his wings and his tail, and pull his feathers<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_231" id="Page_231">[Pg 231]</a></span> out; and they all
+screamed and chattered at him till at last the hawk let the poor
+duckling down into the marsh, and then, rising much higher than the
+other birds, flew away so quickly that he was out of sight in a minute.
+Harry clapped his hands with delight to see the hawk thus treated, and
+said that he was rightly served.</p>
+
+<div class="figcenter" style="width: 400px;">
+<img src="images/illus-0231-1-small.jpg" width="400" height="299" alt="" title="bigger birds" />
+</div>
+
+<p>Now we walked on again by the river<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_232" id="Page_232">[Pg 232]</a></span>-side. The swallows skimmed along
+the surface of the water, and caught the insects that hovered over it,
+and now and then a sea-gull came with its great wings, and diving into
+the river, bore away a poor fish in its beak to swallow at its leisure.</p>
+
+<div class="figcenter" style="width: 400px;">
+<img src="images/illus-0232-1-small.jpg" width="400" height="226" alt="" title="sea-gull" />
+</div>
+
+<p>Then we came close to a solemn-looking<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_233" id="Page_233">[Pg 233]</a></span> heron, who stood so still that
+we could hardly tell if he were alive, till we saw him suddenly dive his
+head in a pool of water and pull out a frog, which he swallowed at one
+mouthful; and then he stood as still and solemn as ever. He flew away
+when we walked near him, flapping his immense wings slowly, and giving a
+mournful cry.</p>
+
+<p>Then we turned away from the river, and took a path across the meadows,
+where Harry ran about and gathered cowslips and buttercups until he was
+quite tired; therefore it happened very luckily that just as we reached
+the gate into the high-road, who should we see but Uncle George driving
+past in his gig! He stopped his horse when he saw us, and both Harry and
+I were very glad to have a nice ride home with him.</p>
+
+
+<div class="figcenter" style="width: 400px;">
+<img src="images/illus-0233-1-small.jpg" width="400" height="326" alt="" title="stork" />
+</div>
+
+<p>In the evening Harry and I went for a<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_234" id="Page_234">[Pg 234]</a></span> stroll in the fields near home,
+and presently we came to one where the sheep were feeding. The shepherd
+was just calling them home to be put in the fold, and we were very much
+amused to see the antics of some of the young lambs that would skip
+about instead of going to bed with their mothers. This put me in mind to
+tell Harry Mrs. Barbauld&rsquo;s story about</p>
+
+<hr style="width: 65%;" />
+
+<div class="figcenter" style="width: 500px;">
+<img src="images/illus-0236-1-small.jpg" width="500" height="350" alt="" title="THE SILLY LITTLE LAMB" />
+</div>
+<h3>THE SILLY LITTLE LAMB.</h3>
+
+<p>There was once a shepherd, who had a great many sheep and lambs. He took
+a great deal of care of them, and gave them sweet fresh grass to eat,
+and clear water to drink; and if they were sick he was very good to
+them; and when they climbed up a steep hill, and the lambs were tired,
+he used to carry them in his arms; and when they were all eating their
+suppers in the<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_235" id="Page_235">[Pg 235]</a></span> field, he used to sit upon a stile, and play them a
+tune, and sing to them. And so they were the happiest sheep and lambs in
+the whole world. But every night this shepherd used to pen them up in a
+fold. Do you know what a sheepfold is? Well, I will tell you. It is a
+place like the court; but instead of pales there are hurdles, which<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_236" id="Page_236">[Pg 236]</a></span> are
+made of sticks that will bend, such as osier twigs; and they are twisted
+and made very fast, so that nothing can creep in, and nothing can get
+out. Well, and so every night, when it grew dark and cold, the shepherd
+called all his flock, sheep and lambs, together, and drove them into the
+fold, and penned them up, and there they lay as snug and warm and
+comfortable as could be, and nothing could get in to hurt them, and the
+dogs lay round on the outside to guard them, and to bark if any body
+came near; and in the morning the shepherd unpenned the fold, and let
+them all out again.</p>
+
+
+<div class="figcenter" style="width: 400px;">
+<img src="images/illus-0239-1-small.jpg" width="400" height="158" alt="" title="lamb" />
+</div>
+
+<p>Now they were all very happy, as I told you, and loved the shepherd
+dearly that was so good to them&mdash;all except one foolish little lamb. And
+this lamb did not like to be shut up every night in the fold; and she<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_237" id="Page_237">[Pg 237]</a></span>
+came to her mother, who was a wise old sheep, and said to her, &ldquo;I wonder
+why we are shut up so every night? the dogs are not shut up, and why
+should we be shut up? I think it is very hard, and I will get away if I
+can, I am resolved; for I like to run about where I please, and I think
+it is very pleasant in the woods by moonlight.&rdquo; Then the old sheep
+said to her, &ldquo;You are very silly, you little lamb, you had better stay
+in the fold. The shepherd is so good to us, that we should always do as
+he bids us; and if you wander about by yourself, I dare say you will
+come to some harm.&rdquo; &ldquo;I dare say not,&rdquo; said the little lamb. And so when
+the evening came, and the shepherd called them all to come into the
+fold, she would not come, but crept slily under a hedge and hid herself;
+and when the rest of the lambs were all in the<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_238" id="Page_238">[Pg 238]</a></span> fold and fast asleep,
+she came out, and jumped, and frisked, and danced about; and she got out
+of the field, and got into a forest full of trees, and a very fierce
+wolf came rushing out of a cave and howled very loud. Then the silly
+lamb wished she had been shut up in the fold, but the fold was a great
+way off. And the wolf saw her and seized her, and carried her away<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_239" id="Page_239">[Pg 239]</a></span> to a
+dismal den; and there the wolf had two cubs, and the wolf said to them,
+&ldquo;Here, I have brought you a young fat lamb.&rdquo; And so the cubs took her,
+and growled over her a little while, and then ate her up.</p>
+
+<div class="figcenter" style="width: 450px;">
+<img src="images/illus-0239-2-small.jpg" width="450" height="242" alt="" title="the wolf" />
+</div>
+
+<p>Harry said that was a very naughty lamb.</p>
+
+<p>It now began to be quite dark, so Harry and I returned home. Then we had
+a long talk about what we had seen during the day; and then Harry had
+his bread and milk for supper, and then he said his prayers and went to
+bed.</p>

+United States and you are located in the United States, we do not
+claim a right to prevent you from copying, distributing, performing,
+displaying or creating derivative works based on the work as long as
+all references to Project Gutenberg are removed. Of course, we hope

+free access to electronic works by freely sharing Project Gutenberg&trade;
+works in compliance with the terms of this agreement for keeping the
+Project Gutenberg&trade; name associated with the work. You can easily

+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be

+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United

+with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND
+DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular state
