BROOKS. + + BOSTON: + ROBERTS BROTHERS. + + 1895. + + + _Copyright, 1882_, + BY ROBERTS BROTHERS. + + UNIVERSITY PRESS: + JOHN WILSON AND SON, CAMBRIDGE. + + + + +PLISH AND PLUM. + + + + +CHAPTER I. + + + With a pipe between his lips, + Two young dogs upon his hips, + Jogs along old Caspar Sly; + How that man can smoke,--oh, my! + But although the pipe-bowl glows + Red and hot beneath his nose; + Yet his heart is icy-cold; + How can earth such wretches hold! + "Of what earthly use to me + Can such brutes," he mutters, "be? + Do they earn their vittles? No! + 'Tis high time I let 'em go. + What you don't want, fling away! + Them's my sentiments, I say!" + O'er the pond he silent bends, + For to drown them he intends. + With their legs the quadrupeds + Kick and squirm,--can't move their heads + And the inner voice speaks out: + How 't will end we gravely doubt. + _Hubs!_--an airy curve one makes; + _Plish!_--a headlong dive he takes. + Hubs!--the second follows suit; + _Plum!_--the wave engulfs the brute. + "That's well ended," Caspar cries, + Puffs away and homeward hies. + But, as often happens, here too + Things don't go as they appear to. + Paul and Peter,--so 'twas fated,-- + Naked in the bushes waited + For a swim; and they descry + What was done by wicked Sly. + And like frogs they dove, _kechunk_, + Where the poor young dogs had sunk. + Quickly each one with his hand + Drags a little dog to land. + "Plish, I'll call my dog," cried Paul; + "Plum," said Peter, "mine I'll call." + Paul and Peter then with pleasure, + Tenderly took each his treasure, + And, with speed and joy past telling, + Steered for the parental dwelling. + + + + +CHAPTER II. + + + Papa Fittig, calm and cosy, + Mamma Fittig, round and rosy, + Arm in arm sit peaceful there-- + Troubled by no speck of care-- + On the bench before the door; + For the summer day is o'er, + And the supper hour is near, + And the lads will soon be here. + Soon they burst upon the view, + Plish and Plum are with them too. + Fittig thinks a dog a plague: + "Nah!" he cries,--"excuse, I beg!" + But mamma with soft looks pleaded: + "Let them, Fittig!"--and succeeded. + Evening milk, fresh and delicious, + On the table stood in dishes. + Joyfully they haste indoors; + Plish and Plum ahead, of course. + Mercy! look! right in the sweet + Cream each wretch has set his feet; + And the noise their lapping makes + Shows what comfort each one takes. + At the window peeps old Sly, + Chuckles loud and says: "My eye! + This is very bad, he! he! + Very bad, but not for me!!" + + + + +CHAPTER III. + + + When night came, all worn and tired, + As if nothing had transpired, + Paul and Peter in their chamber + Lay there, wrapt in peaceful slumber, + A soft snoring through their noses + Shows how tranquilly each dozes. + But not so with Plish and Plum! + They sit ill-at-ease and glum, + Not being lodged to suit their mind, + To turn in they too inclined. + Plish, the dog's old rule to follow, + Turns round thrice, his bed to hollow; + Plum, however, shows a mind + More affectionately inclined. + When we dream of perfect rest + Comes full many a troublous guest. + "March!" With this harsh word the pets. + Turn their outward summersets + Coolness wakes activity; + Time well-filled glides pleasantly. + Means of sport are handy too, + Here a stocking--there a shoe. + These, before the morning glow, + Curious changes undergo. + When he comes the boys to wake, + And beholds the frightful wreck, + Pale the father cries: "This will + Be a monstrous heavy bill!" + Vengeful claws are in the air; + Feigning sleep, the rogues lie there; + But the mother begs: "I pray, + Fittig dear, thy wrath allay!" + And her loving words assuage + The stern father's boiling rage. + Paul and Peter never care + How they look or what they wear. + Peter two old slippers gets, + Paul his infant pantalets. + Plish and Plum, in morals blind, + To the dog-house are confined. + "This is bad!" says Sly, "he! he! + Very bad, but not for me!" + + + + +CHAPTER IV. + + + Caught at last in wiry house, + Sits that most audacious mouse, + Who, with many a nightly antic, + Drove poor Mamma Fittig frantic,-- + Rioting, with paws erratic, + From the cellar to the attic. + This event to Plish and Plum + Was a long-sought _gaudium_; + For the word was: "Stu-boys! take him! + Seize the wicked grinder--shake him!" + Soft! a refuge mousey reaches + In a leg of Peter's breeches. + Through the leg-tube Plish pursues him, + Plum makes sure he shall not lose him. + Nip! the mousey with his tooth + Stings the smeller of the youth. + Plish essays to pull him clear; + Nip! the plague's on Plish's ear. + See! they run heels over head, + Into neighbor's garden-bed. + _Kritze_-_kratze_! what will be-- + Come, sweet flower-plot, of thee? + At that moment Madam Mieding, + With fresh oil, her lamp is feeding; + And her heart comes near to breaking, + With those pests her garden wrecking. + Indignation lends her wings, + And the oil-can, too, she brings. + Now, with mingling joy and wrath, + She gives each a shower-bath-- + First to Plish and then to Plum, + Shower-bath of petroleum! + Of the effect that might be wrought, + Madam Mieding had not thought. + But what presently took place, + Right before this lady's face, + Made her shut her eyes, so dazed + That she smiled like one half crazed,-- + Drew a heavy sigh, and soon + Gasped and sank down in a swoon. + Paul and Peter, hard and cool, + Heed not much the Golden Rule. + Suffering, stretched beside the way + Never once disturbs their play. + "Bad enough!" says Sly; "he! he! + Shocking bad! but not for me!" + + + + +CHAPTER V. + + + Breeches short and long surtout, + Crooked nose and cane to suit, + Gray of soul and black of eye, + Hat slouched back, expression sly-- + Such is old Sol Shuffleshins; + How complacently he grins! + Fittig's door he's passing now; + Hark! a furious, _row-wow-wow_! + Scarcely has the echo gone, + When the following scene comes on. + Turn and twist him as he will, + Plish and Plum stick to him still; + Underneath his long surtout + Tugs and tears each crazy brute. + Shall that happen twice? not quite! + Mind shall triumph over might! + Presto! What strange dog is there, + Hat in mouth? the young ones stare. + What queer quadruped can he, + Backing toward the doorway, be? + Mrs. Fittig hears the clatter, + Comes to see what _is_ the matter. + Soft as on a mossy bank, + In her lap Sol backward sank. + Fittig also came in view. + "Ow!" cried Sol, "I'm torn in two! + Herr von Fittig pays me for 't, + Or I'll carry it to court!" + He must pay; that makes him pout + Worse than having ten teeth out. + In despair he casts askance + At that youthful pair a glance,-- + Seeming plainly to confess, + "I've no words your shame to express" + Little care the hardened creatures + For their parent's play of features. + "Bad enough!" says Sly, "he! he! + Awful bad! but not for me!" + + + + +CHAPTER VI. + + + Plish and Plum, their deeds declare, + Are a graceless, low-lived pair. + Yet they live in close communion; + And for that, in my opinion, + They deserve some commendation; + But will 't be of long duration? + "Rogue & Co."--such firm, be sure, + Cannot many days endure. + In the sunshine, vis-a-vis, + Sits a lap-dog, fair to see. + To our pair this lovely sight + Is a rare and keen delight. + Each would gain the foremost place + To behold that beauteous face. + If the front is gained by Plish, + Plum looks glum and dismalish; + Then if it is seized by Plum, + That makes Plish exceeding glum. + Soon low-muttering thunders growl, + Paws scratch gravel, eyeballs roll, + And the furious fight begins; + Plum cuts dirt, his brother wins. + Mamma Fittig stands and makes + Chicken salad and pancakes,-- + Those well known and favorite dishes, + Every child devoutly wishes. + Whirr! right through the window come, + Helter-skelter, Plish and Plum. + Pot and pan and stove and stew + Mingle in one grand ragout. + "Wait! you vile Plish!" Peter holloos, + And the word instanter follows + With a well-aimed blow; but Paul + Doesn't relish that at all. + "What d' ye mean, to strike my creatur'?" + Cries out Paul, and lashes Peter; + Who, inflamed with pain and passion, + Winds up Paul in curious fashion. + Now the battle desperate grows; + Each the costly salad throws, + In a frenzy, at his brother, + And they poultice one another. + In comes papa Fittig, hasting + To inflict on them a basting. + Mamma Fittig, full of kindness, + Fearing anger's headlong blindness, + Cries, "Best Fittig! pray consider!" + But her zeal for once undid her. + Her lace cap, so nice and new, + Fittig's cane has bored quite through. + Laughs the wicked Sly, "He! he! + All are done for, now, I see!" + He who laughs at others' woes + Makes few friends and many foes. + Hot and heavy the old chap + Finds, I guess, the pancake cap. + "Bad," said Sly, "as bad can be, + And this once, too, bad for me!" + + + + +CHAPTER VII. + + + So now there sit Plish and Plum, + Very dull and very glum. + Two strong chains, and short, did hem + The activity of them. + Fittig seriously reflected: + "This must somehow be corrected! + Virtue needs encouragement; + Vice gets on by natural bent." + Paul and Peter now began + Schooling with Herr Buckleman. + At the first day's session he + Thus addressed them pleasantly: + "Dear lads,--I assure you, I am very + Glad you have come to this seminary; + And, as I hope, with all your powers + Intend to improve these precious hours. + And first, the things most important to mention, + Reading, writing, and ciphering will claim our attention; + For these are the arts by which man rises + To honor and wealth, and wins great prizes. + But, secondly, what good would all this do, + Unless politeness were added thereto? + For he who is not polite to all + Into trouble will certainly fall. + Finally, therefore, bending before you, + As you see, I entreat and implore you, + If in good faith you have made up your mind + To follow the rules I have now defined, + Then lift up your hands and look me in the eye, + And say, 'Herr Buckleman, we will try!'" + Paul and Peter thought: "Old man, + D'ye think us greenhorns? Is that your plan?" + They give no answer, but inwardly + They grin and giggle, and say, "he! he!" + Whereat old Master Buckleman + Gave a low whistle, and thus began: + "Since, then, you've resolved to be + Hardened reprobates," said he, + "I am resolved, face down, to lay + You both across my desk straightway, + Applying the stick to your hinder parts + In hopes of softening your hard hearts." + Drawing out then from beneath + His coat, like sabre from its sheath, + His good hazel rod, of stuff + Flexible and tight and tough,-- + He with many a sturdy thwack + Laid it on each urchin's back. + Nay, he trounced two backs in one, + Till he deemed the work was done. + "Now then," he spoke in a tranquil way, + "Belovèd children, what do you say? + Are you content and are we agreed?" + "Yes, yes, Herr Buckleman,--yes, indeed!" + Such was the method of Buckleman; + We see the good effects of his plan. + 'Twas the talk of the people, one and all,-- + "Charming children--Peter and Paul!" + And so _they_ tried it on Plish and Plum: + They too, also, to school must come. + And the Buckleman plan's applied + Faithfully to each one's hide. + Masters of Arts, they're soon approved, + And universally beloved; + And, as one might well expect, + Art shows practical effect. + + + + +CONCLUSION. + + + One day travelling through the land, + With a field-glass in his hand, + A well-dressed man of fortune came; + Mister Peep, they called his name. + "Can't I, as I pass," said he, + "View the distant scenery? + Beauty reigns elsewhere, I know, + Whereas here 'tis but so-so." + Here he pitched into the pond, + Viewed the mud and naught beyond. + "Paul and Peter,--look and see + Where the gentleman can be!" + So said Fittig, who just then + Walked forth with the little men; + But fu'l soon it was made plain + Where the gentleman had lain, + When he, minus hat and glass, + Stood all dripping on the grass. + "_Allez!_ Plish and Plum, _apport!_" + Came the order from the shore. + Strictly trained to fetch and carry,-- + Not a moment did they tarry,-- + Fetched the lost goods from the deep. + "Very well," cried Mister Peep. + "Nice dogs, friend, I'll buy the two; + How'll a hundred dollars do?" + Papa Fittig's head inclined: + "The gentleman is very kind." + On new legs he seems to stand, + Such a pile of cash in hand. + "Ah, you darlings, Plish and Plum! + We must part--the hour has come-- + On this very spot, right here, + Where we four, this time last year, + Were united, by the pond, + In a sweet and solemn bond. + May your life in peace be led, + With beefsteak for daily bread." + Now all this was seen by Sly, + Just then happening to pass by. + "Very pleasant," mutters he, + "Yes, no doubt, but not for me." + Envy, like a poisoned dart, + Stung him to the very heart. + All before him misty grows; + Legs give way and back he goes, + Down into the oozy damp; + Quenched forever is life's lamp! + Left alone upon the shore, + Quickened by his breath no more, + Faintly gleams the expiring soul + Of the pipe within the bowl; + One blue cloud I see ascend, + _Futt!_ the tale is at an + End. + + +University Press: John Wilson & Son, Cambridge. + + + + + +End of the Project Gutenberg EBook of Plish and Plum, by Wilhelm Busch + +*** END OF THIS PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK PLISH AND PLUM *** + +***** This file should be named 37188-8.txt or 37188-8.zip ***** +This and all associated files of various formats will be found in: + https://www.gutenberg.org/3/7/1/8/37188/ + +Produced by David Edwards, Matthew Wheaton and the Online +Distributed Proofreading Team at https://www.pgdp.net (This +file was produced from images generously made available +by The Internet Archive) + + +Updated editions will replace the previous one--the old editions +will be renamed. + +Creating the works from public domain print editions means that no +one owns a United States copyright in these works, so the Foundation +(and you!) can copy and distribute it in the United States without +permission and without paying copyright royalties.

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 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: + + https://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. diff --git a/37188-8.zip b/37188-8.zip Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..bac7f8c --- /dev/null +++ b/37188-8.zip diff --git a/37188-h.zip b/37188-h.zip Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..e6cb373 --- /dev/null +++ b/37188-h.zip diff --git a/37188-h/37188-h.htm b/37188-h/37188-h.htm new file mode 100644 index 0000000..e30901d --- /dev/null +++ b/37188-h/37188-h.htm @@ -0,0 +1,2009 @@ +<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"> + +<html> + +<head> + + <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=us-ascii"> + + <title> + The Project Gutenberg eBook of Plish and Plum, by Wilhelm Busch. + </title> + + <style type="text/css"> + + body { + margin-left:10%; + margin-right:10%; + } + + #booktitle { + letter-spacing:3px; + } + + .centered { + text-align:center; + font-weight:bold; + } + + div.centered { + text-align:center; + } + + div.centered table { + margin-left:auto; + margin-right:auto; + text-align:left; + } + + div.inset { + margin-top:1em; + margin-bottom:1em; + margin-left:auto; + margin-right:auto; + width:300px + } + + div.inset p { + text-indent:0; + } + + .figcenter { + padding:1em; + text-align:center; + font-size:0.8em; + border:none; + margin:auto; + text-indent:1em; + } + + .figcenter img { + border:none; + } + + .figcenter p { + margin:0; + text-indent:1em; + } + + .h1 { + font-size:2em; + margin:.67em 0; + } + + .h1, + .h2, + .h3, + .h4 { + font-weight:bolder; + text-align:center; + text-indent:0; + } + + h1, + h2, + h3, + h4, + hr { + text-align:center; + } + + .h2 { + font-size:1.5em; + margin:.75em 0; + } + + .h3 { + font-size:1.17em; + margin:.83em 0; + } + + .h4 { + margin:1.12em 0 ; + } + + hr.chapter { + margin-top:6em; + margin-bottom:4em; + } + + p { + text-align:justify; + margin-top:.3em; + margin-bottom:.3em; + text-indent:0; + } + + p.spacer { + margin-top:2em; + margin-bottom:3em; + } + + .pagenum { +/* visibility:hidden; remove comment out to hide page numbers */ + position:absolute; + right:2%; + font-size:75%; + color:gray; + background-color:inherit; + text-align:right; + text-indent:0; + font-style:normal; + font-weight:normal; + font-variant:normal; + } + + .sc, + .smcap { + font-variant:small-caps; + } + + </style> + +</head> + +<body> + + +<pre> + +The Project Gutenberg EBook of Plish and Plum, by Wilhelm Busch + +This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere at no cost and with +almost no restrictions whatsoever.

Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable +effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread +public domain works 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 +of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project +Gutenberg-tm trademark, and any other party distributing a Project +Gutenberg-tm electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all +liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal +fees. YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT +LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE +PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH 1.F.3. YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE +TRADEMARK OWNER, AND ANY DISTRIBUTOR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT BE +LIABLE TO YOU FOR ACTUAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR +INCIDENTAL DAMAGES EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH +DAMAGE. + +1.F.3. LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a +defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can +receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a +written explanation to the person you received the work from. If you +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 OTHER +WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO +WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE. + +1.F.5. Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied +warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages. +If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement violates the +law of the state applicable to this agreement, the agreement shall be +interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or limitation permitted by +the applicable state law.

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 web page at https://www.pglaf.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. Its 501(c)(3) letter is posted at +https://pglaf.org/fundraising. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent +permitted by U.S. federal laws and your state's laws. + +The Foundation's principal office is located at 4557 Melan Dr. S. +Fairbanks, AK, 99712., but its volunteers and employees are scattered +throughout numerous locations. Its business office is located at +809 North 1500 West, Salt Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887, email +business@pglaf.org.

Newby + Chief Executive and Director + gbnewby@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 https://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 including checks, online payments and credit card +donations. To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.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 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: + + https://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. + + +</pre> + +</body> +</html> diff --git a/37188-h/images/z001.jpg b/37188-h/images/z001.jpg Binary files differnew file mode 100644

No! + 'Tis high time I let 'em go. + What you don't want, fling away! + Them's my sentiments, I say!" + O'er the pond he silent bends, + For to drown them he intends. + With their legs the quadrupeds + Kick and squirm,--can't move their heads + And the inner voice speaks out: + How 't will end we gravely doubt. + _Hubs!_--an airy curve one makes; + _Plish!_--a headlong dive he takes. + Hubs!--the second follows suit; + _Plum!_--the wave engulfs the brute. + "That's well ended," Caspar cries, + Puffs away and homeward hies. + But, as often happens, here too + Things don't go as they appear to. + Paul and Peter,--so 'twas fated,-- + Naked in the bushes waited + For a swim; and they descry + What was done by wicked Sly. + And like frogs they dove, _kechunk_, + Where the poor young dogs had sunk. + Quickly each one with his hand + Drags a little dog to land. + "Plish, I'll call my dog," cried Paul; + "Plum," said Peter, "mine I'll call." + Paul and Peter then with pleasure, + Tenderly took each his treasure, + And, with speed and joy past telling, + Steered for the parental dwelling. + + + + +CHAPTER II. + + + Papa Fittig, calm and cosy, + Mamma Fittig, round and rosy, + Arm in arm sit peaceful there-- + Troubled by no speck of care-- + On the bench before the door; + For the summer day is o'er, + And the supper hour is near, + And the lads will soon be here. + Soon they burst upon the view, + Plish and Plum are with them too. + Fittig thinks a dog a plague: + "Nah!" he cries,--"excuse, I beg!" + But mamma with soft looks pleaded: + "Let them, Fittig!"--and succeeded. + Evening milk, fresh and delicious, + On the table stood in dishes. + Joyfully they haste indoors; + Plish and Plum ahead, of course. + Mercy! look! right in the sweet + Cream each wretch has set his feet; + And the noise their lapping makes + Shows what comfort each one takes. + At the window peeps old Sly, + Chuckles loud and says: "My eye! + This is very bad, he! he! + Very bad, but not for me!!" + + + + +CHAPTER III. + + + When night came, all worn and tired, + As if nothing had transpired, + Paul and Peter in their chamber + Lay there, wrapt in peaceful slumber, + A soft snoring through their noses + Shows how tranquilly each dozes. + But not so with Plish and Plum! + They sit ill-at-ease and glum, + Not being lodged to suit their mind, + To turn in they too inclined. + Plish, the dog's old rule to follow, + Turns round thrice, his bed to hollow; + Plum, however, shows a mind + More affectionately inclined. + When we dream of perfect rest + Comes full many a troublous guest. + "March!" With this harsh word the pets. + Turn their outward summersets + Coolness wakes activity; + Time well-filled glides pleasantly. + Means of sport are handy too, + Here a stocking--there a shoe. + These, before the morning glow, + Curious changes undergo. + When he comes the boys to wake, + And beholds the frightful wreck, + Pale the father cries: "This will + Be a monstrous heavy bill!" + Vengeful claws are in the air; + Feigning sleep, the rogues lie there; + But the mother begs: "I pray, + Fittig dear, thy wrath allay!" + And her loving words assuage + The stern father's boiling rage. + Paul and Peter never care + How they look or what they wear. + Peter two old slippers gets, + Paul his infant pantalets. + Plish and Plum, in morals blind, + To the dog-house are confined. + "This is bad!" says Sly, "he! he! + Very bad, but not for me!" + + + + +CHAPTER IV. + + + Caught at last in wiry house, + Sits that most audacious mouse, + Who, with many a nightly antic, + Drove poor Mamma Fittig frantic,-- + Rioting, with paws erratic, + From the cellar to the attic. + This event to Plish and Plum + Was a long-sought _gaudium_; + For the word was: "Stu-boys! take him! + Seize the wicked grinder--shake him!" + Soft! a refuge mousey reaches + In a leg of Peter's breeches. + Through the leg-tube Plish pursues him, + Plum makes sure he shall not lose him. + Nip! the mousey with his tooth + Stings the smeller of the youth. + Plish essays to pull him clear; + Nip! the plague's on Plish's ear. + See! they run heels over head, + Into neighbor's garden-bed. + _Kritze_-_kratze_! what will be-- + Come, sweet flower-plot, of thee? + At that moment Madam Mieding, + With fresh oil, her lamp is feeding; + And her heart comes near to breaking, + With those pests her garden wrecking. + Indignation lends her wings, + And the oil-can, too, she brings. + Now, with mingling joy and wrath, + She gives each a shower-bath-- + First to Plish and then to Plum, + Shower-bath of petroleum! + Of the effect that might be wrought, + Madam Mieding had not thought. + But what presently took place, + Right before this lady's face, + Made her shut her eyes, so dazed + That she smiled like one half crazed,-- + Drew a heavy sigh, and soon + Gasped and sank down in a swoon. + Paul and Peter, hard and cool, + Heed not much the Golden Rule. + Suffering, stretched beside the way + Never once disturbs their play. + "Bad enough!" says Sly; "he! he! + Shocking bad! but not for me!" + + + + +CHAPTER V. + + + Breeches short and long surtout, + Crooked nose and cane to suit, + Gray of soul and black of eye, + Hat slouched back, expression sly-- + Such is old Sol Shuffleshins; + How complacently he grins! + Fittig's door he's passing now; + Hark! a furious, _row-wow-wow_! + Scarcely has the echo gone, + When the following scene comes on. + Turn and twist him as he will, + Plish and Plum stick to him still; + Underneath his long surtout + Tugs and tears each crazy brute. + Shall that happen twice? not quite! + Mind shall triumph over might! + Presto! What strange dog is there, + Hat in mouth? the young ones stare. + What queer quadruped can he, + Backing toward the doorway, be? + Mrs. Fittig hears the clatter, + Comes to see what _is_ the matter. + Soft as on a mossy bank, + In her lap Sol backward sank. + Fittig also came in view. + "Ow!" cried Sol, "I'm torn in two! + Herr von Fittig pays me for 't, + Or I'll carry it to court!" + He must pay; that makes him pout + Worse than having ten teeth out. + In despair he casts askance + At that youthful pair a glance,-- + Seeming plainly to confess, + "I've no words your shame to express" + Little care the hardened creatures + For their parent's play of features. + "Bad enough!" says Sly, "he! he! + Awful bad! but not for me!" + + + + +CHAPTER VI. + + + Plish and Plum, their deeds declare, + Are a graceless, low-lived pair. + Yet they live in close communion; + And for that, in my opinion, + They deserve some commendation; + But will 't be of long duration? + "Rogue & Co."--such firm, be sure, + Cannot many days endure. + In the sunshine, vis-a-vis, + Sits a lap-dog, fair to see. + To our pair this lovely sight + Is a rare and keen delight. + Each would gain the foremost place + To behold that beauteous face. + If the front is gained by Plish, + Plum looks glum and dismalish; + Then if it is seized by Plum, + That makes Plish exceeding glum. + Soon low-muttering thunders growl, + Paws scratch gravel, eyeballs roll, + And the furious fight begins; + Plum cuts dirt, his brother wins. + Mamma Fittig stands and makes + Chicken salad and pancakes,-- + Those well known and favorite dishes, + Every child devoutly wishes. + Whirr! right through the window come, + Helter-skelter, Plish and Plum. + Pot and pan and stove and stew + Mingle in one grand ragout. + "Wait! you vile Plish!" Peter holloos, + And the word instanter follows + With a well-aimed blow; but Paul + Doesn't relish that at all. + "What d' ye mean, to strike my creatur'?" + Cries out Paul, and lashes Peter; + Who, inflamed with pain and passion, + Winds up Paul in curious fashion. + Now the battle desperate grows; + Each the costly salad throws, + In a frenzy, at his brother, + And they poultice one another. + In comes papa Fittig, hasting + To inflict on them a basting. + Mamma Fittig, full of kindness, + Fearing anger's headlong blindness, + Cries, "Best Fittig! pray consider!" + But her zeal for once undid her. + Her lace cap, so nice and new, + Fittig's cane has bored quite through. + Laughs the wicked Sly, "He! he! + All are done for, now, I see!" + He who laughs at others' woes + Makes few friends and many foes. + Hot and heavy the old chap + Finds, I guess, the pancake cap. + "Bad," said Sly, "as bad can be, + And this once, too, bad for me!" + + + + +CHAPTER VII. + + + So now there sit Plish and Plum, + Very dull and very glum. + Two strong chains, and short, did hem + The activity of them. + Fittig seriously reflected: + "This must somehow be corrected! + Virtue needs encouragement; + Vice gets on by natural bent." + Paul and Peter now began + Schooling with Herr Buckleman. + At the first day's session he + Thus addressed them pleasantly: + "Dear lads,--I assure you, I am very + Glad you have come to this seminary; + And, as I hope, with all your powers + Intend to improve these precious hours. + And first, the things most important to mention, + Reading, writing, and ciphering will claim our attention; + For these are the arts by which man rises + To honor and wealth, and wins great prizes. + But, secondly, what good would all this do, + Unless politeness were added thereto? + For he who is not polite to all + Into trouble will certainly fall. + Finally, therefore, bending before you, + As you see, I entreat and implore you, + If in good faith you have made up your mind + To follow the rules I have now defined, + Then lift up your hands and look me in the eye, + And say, 'Herr Buckleman, we will try!'" + Paul and Peter thought: "Old man, + D'ye think us greenhorns? Is that your plan?" + They give no answer, but inwardly + They grin and giggle, and say, "he! he!" + Whereat old Master Buckleman + Gave a low whistle, and thus began: + "Since, then, you've resolved to be + Hardened reprobates," said he, + "I am resolved, face down, to lay + You both across my desk straightway, + Applying the stick to your hinder parts + In hopes of softening your hard hearts." + Drawing out then from beneath + His coat, like sabre from its sheath, + His good hazel rod, of stuff + Flexible and tight and tough,-- + He with many a sturdy thwack + Laid it on each urchin's back. + Nay, he trounced two backs in one, + Till he deemed the work was done. + "Now then," he spoke in a tranquil way, + "Beloved children, what do you say? + Are you content and are we agreed?" + "Yes, yes, Herr Buckleman,--yes, indeed!" + Such was the method of Buckleman; + We see the good effects of his plan. + 'Twas the talk of the people, one and all,-- + "Charming children--Peter and Paul!" + And so _they_ tried it on Plish and Plum: + They too, also, to school must come. + And the Buckleman plan's applied + Faithfully to each one's hide. + Masters of Arts, they're soon approved, + And universally beloved; + And, as one might well expect, + Art shows practical effect. + + + + +CONCLUSION. + + + One day travelling through the land, + With a field-glass in his hand, + A well-dressed man of fortune came; + Mister Peep, they called his name. + "Can't I, as I pass," said he, + "View the distant scenery? + Beauty reigns elsewhere, I know, + Whereas here 'tis but so-so." + Here he pitched into the pond, + Viewed the mud and naught beyond. + "Paul and Peter,--look and see + Where the gentleman can be!" + So said Fittig, who just then + Walked forth with the little men; + But fu'l soon it was made plain + Where the gentleman had lain, + When he, minus hat and glass, + Stood all dripping on the grass. + "_Allez!_ Plish and Plum, _apport!_" + Came the order from the shore. + Strictly trained to fetch and carry,-- + Not a moment did they tarry,-- + Fetched the lost goods from the deep. + "Very well," cried Mister Peep. + "Nice dogs, friend, I'll buy the two; + How'll a hundred dollars do?" + Papa Fittig's head inclined: + "The gentleman is very kind." + On new legs he seems to stand, + Such a pile of cash in hand. + "Ah, you darlings, Plish and Plum! + We must part--the hour has come-- + On this very spot, right here, + Where we four, this time last year, + Were united, by the pond, + In a sweet and solemn bond. + May your life in peace be led, + With beefsteak for daily bread." + Now all this was seen by Sly, + Just then happening to pass by. + "Very pleasant," mutters he, + "Yes, no doubt, but not for me." + Envy, like a poisoned dart, + Stung him to the very heart. + All before him misty grows; + Legs give way and back he goes, + Down into the oozy damp; + Quenched forever is life's lamp! + Left alone upon the shore, + Quickened by his breath no more, + Faintly gleams the expiring soul + Of the pipe within the bowl; + One blue cloud I see ascend, + _Futt!_ the tale is at an + End. + + +University Press: John Wilson & Son, Cambridge. + + + + + +End of the Project Gutenberg EBook of Plish and Plum, by Wilhelm Busch + +*** END OF THIS PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK PLISH AND PLUM *** + +***** This file should be named 37188.txt or 37188.zip ***** +This and all associated files of various formats will be found in: + https://www.gutenberg.org/3/7/1/8/37188/ + +Produced by David Edwards, Matthew Wheaton and the Online +Distributed Proofreading Team at https://www.pgdp.net (This +file was produced from images generously made available +by The Internet Archive) + + +Updated editions will replace the previous one--the old editions +will be renamed. + +Creating the works from public domain print editions means that no +one owns a United States copyright in these works, so the Foundation +(and you!) can copy and distribute it in the United States without +permission and without paying copyright royalties.
