+All About The Little Small Red Hen.
+
+
+  Once upon a time,
+    Though I can't say exactly when,
+  There lived, away in the country,
+    A Little Small Red Hen.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  She wore a nice little apron,
+    And a little sunbonnet too,
+  And she walked picketty pecketty,
+    As little Hens always do.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  She had lived the whole of her little life,
+    In the same little house; it stood
+  All by itself, in a lonely spot,
+    Just at the edge of a wood.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  It was very snug and cosy and warm,
+    And the garden wasn't big,
+  But just what a Little Small Red Hen
+    Could nicely manage to dig.
+
+  And once upon a time--
+    Just the same time, of course,
+  There also lived a Wicked Old Fox
+    Among the heath and gorse.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  Silently, slyly, he crept round the fields,
+    Stealing geese and ducks and cocks,
+  Dressed in a hat and long great coat,
+    This wicked, cunning old Fox.
+
+  His house was perched on top of the hill,
+    It was made of rock and stone;
+  He and his wife, old Mother Fox,
+    They lived there all alone.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  It was large and damp and draughty,
+    Ugly and cold and bare;
+  A tidy Little Small Red Hen
+    Would never be happy there.
+
+  Now, the Wicked Old Fox had often tried
+    Over and over again,
+  To catch by some sly trick or other
+    The Little Small Red Hen.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  But she was far too clever for him,
+    She never let him find her,
+  And whenever she left her little house
+    She would lock the door behind her.
+
+  One morning, very early indeed,
+    Before the sun was hot,
+  The Wicked Old Fox said to Mother Fox,
+    "Put on the big black pot.
+
+  "I'm going to have another try,
+    I shall soon be back, and then
+  I promise you'll see at last I've caught
+    The Little Small Red Hen."
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  So he put on his cap and shouldered a sack,
+    And walked very sly and slow;
+  And after a while he came in sight
+    Of the snug little house below.
+
+  And he laid the sack very softly down
+    On the ground behind a tree,
+  And then lay down to wait and watch,
+    As quiet as quiet could be.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  He was getting tired of waiting there,
+    When the house-door opened wide,
+  And the Little Small Red Hen came forth
+    To gather sticks outside;
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  Walking picketty-pecketty,
+    Exceedingly neat and prim;
+  And the Wicked Old Fox lay watching;
+    She never once thought of him!
+
+  While she was picking up the sticks
+    He slipped behind the door,
+  And laughed "Ho! Ho!" to himself, very low,
+    As he put the sack on the floor.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  He stood there, hiding and chuckling,
+    And peeping through the crack,
+  And he saw the Little Small Red Hen,
+    In a minute or two, come back.
+
+  She stepped inside with her bundle of sticks,
+    As cheerful as one could be,
+  When the Wicked Old Fox sprang full at her throat.
+    "I've got you now!" cried he.
+
+  "What good are bolts and bars?" he said,
+    "How silly you must be
+  To think that they could ever keep out
+    A cunning old Fox like me!"
+
+  Of course the poor Little Small Red Hen
+    Was now in a terrible fright.
+  She gave a scream and dropped her sticks,
+    They tumbled left and right.
+
+  But she just had time to fly on a beam
+    That went across over head,
+  Quite out of reach of the Wicked Old Fox.
+    "But I'll have you yet," he said.
+
+  Then he began to run round and round,
+    And round and round beneath,
+  Looking up every now and then,
+    Laughing and showing his teeth.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  It made her dreadfully dizzy and faint,
+    She gave a cluck and a lurch,
+  She gave a flap and a flutter and flop,
+    And fell right off her perch.
+
+  Then the Wicked Old Fox threw open his sack,
+    And in less than half a minute,
+  He had picked her up with a cry of joy,
+    And hastily stuffed her in it.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  He swung it over his shoulder, smiled,
+    And started off for his den;
+  "How nice you'll be for supper!" said he,
+    "My dear Little Small Red Hen!"
+
+  So there she was, poor thing, you see,
+    Shut up quite tight in the sack;
+  She found it most unpleasant there,
+    Close and stuffy and black.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  But she thought of her little scissors,
+    In her apron pocket hid.
+  "I will cut a hole and see where I am,"
+    She said. And so she did.
+
+  Now the sun was hot, and all the time
+    It was getting hotter still;
+  And the Wicked Old Fox grew very tired
+    As he climbed the heathy hill.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  He dropped on mossy bank, and said--
+    "It may be lazy--but
+  I think I'll just have forty winks,"
+    And his wicked eyes blinked and shut.
+
+  The Little Small Red Hen, indeed,
+    Was also very glad
+  To rest a bit from the jogs and jolts'
+    And the bangs and bumps she'd had.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  And she thought, "If I cut a little hole,
+    Why not a big one too?"
+  And she cut a slit that was long enough
+    To let her whole self through!
+
+  Wasn't she pleased to be free again!
+    She said, "I must run double-quick;
+  But before I go I'll manage to play,
+    The Wicked Old Fox a trick."
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  And she took a great big knobby stone,
+    As large as a lump of coal,
+  And heaved and pushed, and pushed and heaved,
+    'Till she got it through the hole.
+
+  And then she scuttled panting home
+    As fast as her legs would go,
+  Not walking picketty-pecketty
+    This time,--oh dear no!
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  She scuttered and fluttered down the hill,
+    And scampered through her door.
+  "Thank goodness!" she said, all out of breath,
+    "I'm safe at home once more!"
+
+  But when the Wicked Old Fox woke up,
+    It was getting dark and late.
+  He shouldered the sack, and found it now
+    A most remarkable weight.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  "Dear me!" he said, "she weighs like a goose!
+    I thought she'd be light as a wren;
+  What a splendid supper we'll have to-night
+    Off the Little Small Red Hen!"
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  So heavily, wearily trudged he home,
+    And kept shifting the sack about;
+  And when at last he came to his door,
+    There was old Mother Fox looking out.
+
+  She said to him, "You look tired, my dear,"
+    And he answered, "Ah, she's caught!"
+  And he puffed and licked his lips and said
+    "She's twice as fat as I thought!"
+
+  He asked, "My love, is the pot on the boil?"
+    "It's boiling fast," she replied.
+  He said, "Then take the lid off, my dear,
+    And we'll pop her plump inside!"
+
+  So Old Mother Fox took off the lid,
+    Hot and steaming and black,
+  While the Wicked Old Fox, with hurry and haste,
+    Untied the mouth of the sack.
+
+  And--SPLASH! went in the great big stone,
+    It _was_ a splash! my word!
+  I don't suppose a splash so loud
+    Has ever before been heard.
+
+  The bees and birds and bunnies all,
+    Who had gone to bed for the night,
+  For miles around, woke up with a jump
+    In a most tremendous fright.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+  And the boiling water in the pot
+    Splashed out on every side,
+  And terribly scalded the Wicked Old Fox,
+    And Old Mother Fox, and they died.
+
+  There they lay, all still and stark,
+    Up in the house on the hill;
+  There they lay, and, for all I know,
+    There they are lying still.
+
+  But the Hen lived happily, just as before,
+    In her dear little house by the wood,
+  Walking picketty-pecketty,
+    Working as hard as she could.
+
+  "I've had a great many troubles!
+    I hope they won't happen again;
+  Anything for a quiet life!"
+    Said the Little Small Red Hen.

+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, is 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.

+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org.

+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 http://pglaf.org
+
+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: http://pglaf.org/donate

+
+Section 5.  General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone.  For thirty 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 Public Domain 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:

+     http://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.
