Pàgina 45 - There was a kind 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 happy sheep and Iambs.

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 dark den, all covered with bones and blood ; and there the wolf had two cubs, and the wolf said to them, Here, I have brought you a young fat lamb...
Pàgina 46 - ... 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...
