Once upon a time

there was

an old pig

called

Aunt Pettitoes

3



and four little

boy pigs called

Alexander

Pigling Bland

Chin-Chin

and Stumpy

Stumpy hadhad an accident

to his tail

She had eight

of a family

four little girl pigs

called

Cross-patch

Suck-suck

Yock-yock

and Spot

4



Yus yus yusthey eat

indeed

they DO eatldquo

said

Aunt Pettitoes

looking at her familywith pride

The eight little pigs

had very fine

appetitesmdash

5



Alexander

had squeezed

inside the hoops

of the pig trough

and stuck

Aunt Pettitoes and I

dragged him outby the hind legs

Suddenly

there were fearful

squeals

6



it was

washing day

and he had eaten

a piece of soap

Chin-chin

was alreadyin disgrace

7



And presently

in a basket

of clean clothes

we found another

dirty little pig--

8



Now

all the pig familyare pink

or pinkwith black spots

but this pig child

was smutty black

all over

Tchut tut tut

whichever

is this

grunted

Aunt Pettitoes

9



when it had

been popped

into a tub

it proved to be

Yock-yock

10



I went

into the garden

there I found

Cross-patch

and Suck-suck

rooting up carrots

11



Cross-patch

tried to bite me

I whipped

them myself

and led them out

by the ears

12



Every one of them

has been

in mischief

except Spot

and

Pigling Bland

Aunt PettitoesAunt Pettitoes

you are

a worthy person

but your family

is notwell brought up

13



Good little Spot

shall stay at home

to do the housework

but the others

must go

Yus yus sighedAunt Pettitoes

And they drinkbucketfuls of milk

I shall have to get

another cow

14



Four little boy pigs

and


are too many

altogether

15



there will be

more to eat

without them

Yus yus yus

said

Aunt Pettitoes

16



So Chin-chin

and Suck-suck

went away

in a wheel-barrow

and Stumpy

Yock-yock

and Cross-patchrode away in a cart

17



We brushed

their coats

We curled

their tails

and washed

their little faces

and wished them

good bye in the yard

And the other two

little boy pigs

Pigling Bland

and Alexander

went to market

18



Aunt Pettitoes

wiped her eyes

with a large pocket

handkerchief

then she wiped

Pigling Blands

noseand shed tears

19



Aunt Pettitoes

sighed

and grunted

and addressed

those little pigs

as follows--

then she wiped

Alexanders nose

and shed tears

then she passed

the handkerchief

to Spot

20



Now

Pigling Blandson

Pigling Bland

you mustgo to market

Take your brother

Alexander

by the hand

21



--(Aunt Pettitoes

passed roundthe handkerchief

again)--

Mind your Sunday

clothes

and remember

to blow your noserdquo

22



beware of traps

hen roosts

bacon and eggs

always walk upon

your hind legs

23



A tear trickleddown his cheek

Pigling Bland

who was a sedate

little pig

looked solemnly

at his mother

24



Aunt Pettitoesturned

to the othermdash

Now son

Alexander

take the handmdash

25



Wee wee wee

giggled Alexander--

26



take the handof your brother

Pigling Bland

you must

go to market

Mindmdashrdquo

27



Wee wee wee

interrupted

Alexander again

28



You put me out

said

Aunt Pettitoes--

Observe signpostsand milestones

do not gobbleherring bones--

29



And remember

said I impressively

if you once cross

the county boundary

you cannot come back

30



Alexanderyou are not attending

(paying attention)

Here are two licenses

permitting two pigs

to go to market

in Lancashire

31



Pigling Bland

listened gravely

Alexander was

hopelessly volatile

(volare to fly)

Attend Alexander

I have hadno end of trouble

in getting these papers

from the policeman

32



Aunt Pettitoes

gave to eacha little bundle

andeight conversation

peppermints

with appropriate

moral sentiments

in screws of paper

I pinnedthe papers

for safety

inside

their waistcoatpockets

33



Then they started

Pigling Bland

and Alexander

trotted along steadilyfor a mile

at leastPigling Bland did

34



He danced about

and pinchedhis brother

singing ndash

This pig went

to the market

this pig

stayed at home

Alexander

made the road

half as long again

by skipping

from side to side

35



This pig had

a bit of meat ndashrdquo

ldquolets seewhat they

have given

US for dinner

Pigling

36



Pigling Bland

and Alexander

sat down

and untied

their bundles

37



Give me

one of yours

please Pigling

Alexandergobbled up

his dinner

in no time

he had

already eatenall his peppermints--

38



Alexander

went into squealsof laughter

But I wish

to preserve them

for emergencies

said Pigling Bland

doubtfully

39



he dropped the pin

and tried

to take Piglings pin

and the papers

got mixed up

Thenhe pricked Pigling

with the pin

that had fastened

his pig paper

and when

Pigling slapped him

40



singing-

Tom Tom

the pipers son

stole a pig

and away he ran

Pigling Blandreproved Alexander

But presentlythey made it up again

and trotted away

together

41



was

`Over the hills

and far away

But

all the tune

that he could play

42



Whats that

young Sirs

Stole a pig

Where are

your licenses

said the policeman

43



They had nearly

run against him

round a corner

44



Pigling Bland

pulled outhis paper

Alexanderafter fumbling

handed over

something

scrumply--

45



Alexanders nose

lengthened visibly

he had lost it

I had one

indeed I had

Mr Policeman

Two 2 12 ouncesconversation

sweeties

at three farthingsrdquo

Whats this

this aint

a license

46



Its not likely

they let you start

without

I am passingthe farm

You may walkwith me

47



I see no reason

young Sir

your paper

is all right

Can I come back

too

inquired

Pigling Bland

48



But

it is unwiseto argue

with the police

Pigling Bland

did not like

going on alone

and it was

beginning

to rain

49



To conclude

the adventures

of Alexander--

he gave

his brother

a peppermint

and watched him

out of sight

50



the policemansauntered up

to the house

about tea time

followed

by a damp

subdued little pig

51



he did fairly well

when he had

settled down

I disposed

of Alexander

in the

neighborhood

52



Over the Hills

4 miles

To Pettitoes Farm

3 miles

Pigling Bland

went on alonedejectedly

he cameto cross roads

and a sign-postmdash

To Market-town

5 miles

53



it was deplorableto think

how much time

had been wasted

by the frivolity

(silliness)

of Alexander

Pigling Bland

was shocked

there was little hope

of sleepingin Market Town

and tomorrowwas the hiring fair

54



He glanced

wistfully

(thoughtfully

longingly)

along the road

towards the hills

and then set off

55



He had neverwanted to go

and the ideaof standing

all by himself

in a crowded

market

walking obediently

the other way

buttoning up

his coat

against the rain

56



to be stared at

pushed

and hired

by some big

strange farmer

was very

disagreeable--

57



I wish I could have

a little garden

and grow potatoes

said

Pigling Bland

58



he put

his other hand

in his other pocket

and feltanother papermdash

Alexanders

He put

his cold hand

in his pocket

and felt his paper

59



He took

a wrong turn

mdashseveral

wrong turns

and

was quite lost

Pigling squealed

then ran back

frantically

hoping

to overtake

Alexanderand the policeman

60



It grew dark

the wind whistled

the trees

creaked and groaned

61



Pigling Blandbecame frightened

and cried

Wee wee wee

I cant find my way

home

62



the moon shone

through

the clouds

and Pigling Bland

saw a country

that was new to him

After

an hours wandering

he got out

of the wood

63



and beyond

--in misty distance

mdashlay the hills

The road crossed

a moor

below was

a wide valley

with a river

twinklingin the moonlight

64



He saw a smallwooden hut

made his wayto it

and crept inside --

65



Bacon and eggs

bacon and eggs

clucked a hen

on a perch

I am afraid

it IS a hen house

but what can I do

said Pigling Bland

wet and cold

and quite tired out

66



To market

to market

Jiggetty-jig

clucked a broody

(wanting to set on

her eggs)

white hen roostingnext to him

Trap trap trap

cackle

cackle

cackle

scolded

the disturbedcockerel

67



In the meantime

he and the hens

fell asleep

In less than an hour

they were

all awakened

Pigling Bland

much alarmed

determined

to leave at daybreak

68



The owner

Mr Peter ThomasPiperson

came with a lantern

and a hamper

(basket with a lid)

to catch six fowls

to take to marketin the morning

69



He grabbed

the white hen

roosting next

to the cock

70



then

his eye fell upon

Pigling Bland

squeezed up

in a corner

He made

a singular (odd)remark

--

71



and dropped him

into the hamper

Halloheres another ndash

seized Piglingby the scruff

of the neck

(skin on the back

of the neck)

72



The hamper

containing

six fowls

and a young pig

was no light

weight

Thenhe dropped in

five more

dirty kickingcackling hens

upon the top

of Pigling Bland

73



Pigling

although nearly

scratched to pieces

contrivedto hide the papers

and the peppermints

inside his clothes

it was taken

down hill

unsteadily

with jerks

74



He looked up

blinking

and saw

an offensively uglyelderly man

grinningfrom ear to ear

At last the hamperwas bumped down

upon a kitchen floor

the lid was opened

and Pigling

was lifted out

75



This onescome of himself

whatever

said Mr Piperson

turning Piglings

pockets inside out

76



He pushed the hamper

into a corner

threw a sack over it

to keep the hens quiet

put a pot on the fire

and unlaced his boots

77



Pigling Bland

drew forwarda coppy (cut-off)

stool

and sat

on the edge of it

shyly warminghis hands

78



Mr Piperson

pulled off a boot

and threw it

againstthe wainscot

(wood paneling)

at the further endof the kitchen

79



Pigling Bland

warmed

his hands

and eyed him

There was

a smothered noisemdash

ldquoShut uprdquo

said

Mr Piperson

80



Mr Piperson

pulled off

the other boot

and flung itafter the first

there was againa curious noise--

81



Pigling Bland sat

on the very edge

of the coppy

(cut-off short)

stool

Be quiet

will ye

said

Mr Piperson

82



and made

porridge(cooked oatmeal)

Mr Piperson

fetched meal

from a chest

83



It seemed to Pigling

that somethingat the further end

of the kitchen

was taking

a suppressed

(pushed down)

interestin the cooking

84



but

he was

too hungry

to be troubled

by noises

85



Mr Piperson

poured outthree platefuls

for himselffor Pigling

and a third

-after glaring

at Pigling--

86



87

he put away

with much

scuffling

and locked up

Pigling Bland

ate his supper

discreetly(unnoticeably)



After supperMr Piperson

consulted

an almanac

(reference book)

and felt

Piglings ribs

88



Besides

the hens

had seen this pig

It was too late

in the season

for curing bacon

and he grudged

his meal

89



ldquoYou may sleep

on the rugrdquo

said Mr Peter

Thomas Piperson

Pigling Bland

slept like a top

He lookedat the small

remains of a flitch

(side of bacon)

and then looked

undecidedly

at Pigling

90



He looked

how much

meal was left

in the chest

and seemed

dissatisfied--

In the morningMr Piperson made

more porridge

(oatmeal)

the weather

was warmer

91



Before Pigling could

reply

a neighbor

who was giving

Mr Pipersonand the hens

a lift

whistled

from the gate

Youll likely

be moving on

again

said he

to Pigling Bland

92



or

Ill come back

and skin ye

said Mr Piperson

Mr Piperson

hurried outwith the hamper

enjoining Pigling

to shut the door

behind him

and not meddlewith nought

93



But

he distrusted

Peter Thomas

It crossed Piglings

mind

that if HE had asked

for a lift too

he might

still have been

in timefor market

94



After finishing

breakfastat his leisure

Pigling had

a look round

the cottage

everythingwas locked up

95



Pigling

ate the peel

and washed up

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

and far away--

He sang

while he workedmdash

Tom

with his pipemade such a noise

He called up allthe girls and boys-

97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause

Pigling went on tiptoe

and peeped

round the doorinto the front kitchen

there was nobodythere

100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door

of the lockedcupboard

and snuffedat the keyhole

101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in

all his remainingsix peppermints

It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back

made lots of porridge

and forgot to lockthe meal chest

He had brushed upthe hearth

and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104



He went to bed early

and told Pigling

upon no accountto disturb him

next day

before twelve oclock

He did lock

the cupboard door

but without properly

shutting it

105



Pigling Bland

sat by the fire

eating his supper

106

ll



All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

My name

is Pig-wig

Make me more

porridge please

107



Pigling Bland

jumpedand looked round

A perfectly lovelylittle black

Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

108



She pointedat Piglings plate

he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-

She hadtwinkly little

screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

here

asked

Pigling Bland

110



What for

Bacon hams

replied Pig-wig

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

111



I shall

after supper

said Pig-wig

decidedly

Why on earthdont you run

away

exclaimed

the horrified

Pigling

112



Pigling Bland made

more porridge

and watched her

shyly

113



You cant go

in the darkrdquo

said

Pigling Bland

She finisheda second plate

got up

and looked about her

as though she were

going to start

114



I knowwe can see

this little

white house

from the hills

across the river

Pig-wig

looked anxious

Do you knowyour way

by day-light

115



To market

--I havetwo pig papers

Which way

are YOU going

Mr Pig

116



I might take you

to the bridge

if you have

no objectionrdquo

117

said Pigling

much confused

and sitting

on the edge

of his coppy stool



and she asked

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

and pretend

to sleep

119



Only the corners

replied Pig-wig

studyingthe sentiments

with much interest

by the firelight

I thought

you had

eaten them

said Pigling

waking suddenly

120



Pig-wig put backthe sticky

peppermints

into her pocket

Sing something

she demanded

I wish you wouldnt

he might smell them

through the ceiling

said

the alarmed Pigling

121



Then I will sing

replied Pig-wig

You will not mindif I sing

iddy tidditty

I am sorry

I have tooth- ache

said Pigling

much dismayed

122



Pigling Blandmade no objection

he sat

with his eyes

half shut

and watched her

I have forgotten

some of the words

123



Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124



(Ti idditty idditty)umph umph

umph

and the little pigs

said

wee wee

A funny old

mother pig

lived in a stye

and three little

piggies had she

125



She sang

successfully

through three

or four verses

only

at every verse

her head nodded

a little lower

126



And her

twinkly eyes

closed up--

127

F h h



For somehow they

couldnt say

umph umph

umph

and

they wouldnt say

wee wee wee

Those three littlepiggies

grew peaky and lean

and lean

they might

very well be

128



For somehow

they couldnt say ndash

umph umph

umph

Pig-wigs head

bobbed

lower and lower

until she rolled over

129



a

little round ball

fast asleep on

the hearth-rug

130

Pigling Bland



He was afraid

to go to sleephimself

Pigling Bland

on tiptoe

covered her upwith an

antimacassar

(a cloth coveringchair back to keep

from being soiled

with macassar hairoil)

131

f th t



for the rest

of the nighthe sat listening

to the chirping

of the crickets

and to the snores

of Mr Pipersonoverhead

132



She was excited

and

half- frightened

But its dark

How can we

find our way

Early

in the morningbetween

dark and daylight

Pigling tied up

his little bundle

and woke up

Pig-wig

133



The cock

has crowed

we must start

before the henscome out

they might shout

to Mr Piperson

134



Come away

Pig-wig

we can see when

we get used to it

Come

I can hear

them clucking

Pig-wig sat down

and commenced(began)

to cry

135



He opened

the house door

quietly

and shut it

after them

Pigling had neversaid shuh

to a hen in his life

being peaceable

also

he remembered

the hamper

136



There was

no garden

the neighborhood

of Mr Pipersons

was

all scratched up

by fowls

137



They slipped away

hand in hand

acrossan untidy field

to the road

138



Butall the tune

that he could play

was

`Over the hills

and far away

Tom Tom

the pipers son

stole a pig

and away he ran

139



Why

do you want

to go to market

Pigling

inquired Pig-wig

Come Pig-wig

we must get

to the bridgebefore folks

are stirring

140



a dazzle of light

over the topsof the hills

The sun rose

while they werecrossing the moor

141



The sunshine crept

down the slopes

into the peaceful

green valleys

where little white

cottages nestled

in gardensand orchards

142



Thats

Westmorland

said Pig-wig

143



I dont want

I wantto grow potatoes

She droppedPiglings hand

and commenced

to dance

singing

-- presently

144



Does yourpoor toothy hurt

inquired Pig-wig

Pigling Bland

grunted

Have a peppermint

said Pig-wig

Pigling Bland

refused quite crossly

145



and followed

the opposite sideof the road

Pig-wig ate

the peppermintherself

146



Pig-wig

keep

under the wall

theres

a man plowing

147



they hurried down hill

towards

the county boundary

Pig-wig

crossed over

148



Suddenly

Pigling stopped

he heard wheels

149



The reins flapped

on the horses back

the grocerwas reading

a newspaper

Slowly jogging

up the road

below themcame

a tradesmans cart

150



Take that

peppermint

out of your mouth

Pig-wig

have to run

151



And in sight

of the bridgerdquo

said poor Pigling

nearly crying

ldquoDont say

one word

Leave it to me

152

h



The grocer

intent uponhis newspaper

might have passedthem

if his horse had not

shied and snorted

He began to walk

frightfully lame

holding Pig-wigs arm

153



He pulled the cart

crossways

and held down

his whip

154



Hallo

Where areyou going to

mdashPigling Blandstared

at him vacantly

Are you deaf

155



Are you going

to market

Pigling

nodded slowly

I thought

as much

It was yesterday

156

Sh



Show me your

license

Pigling stared

at the off (left) hind (rear) shoe

of the grocers horse

which had

picked up a stone

157



ldquoPapers

Pig licenserdquo

The grocer

flicked his whip ndash

158



The grocer

read them

but still seemed

dissatisfied

Pigling fumbled

in all his pockets

and handed up

the papers

159



Pig-wig opened

her mouth

and shut it again

Pigling coughed

asthmatically

This here pig

is a young lady

is her name

Alexander

160



Lost stolen

or strayed

10S reward

he looked

suspiciously

at Pig-wig

The grocer ran

his finger down

the advertisementcolumn

of his newspaper

161



You wait herewhile I drive on

and speak to him

said the grocer

gathering up

the reins

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

162



but surely

such a VERY

lame pig

could never run

He knew that pigs

are slippery

163



Not yet

Pig-wig

he will look back

164



Then he

looked over

at his

horses heels

The grocer did so

he saw

the two pigs

stock-still

in the middle

of the road

165



after he got

to the plowman

it was lame also

the stonetook some time

to knock out

166

Now

Pigling Bland

Never

Suddenly

there were fearful

And presently

Aunt Pettitoes

wiped her eyes

Aunt Pettitoes

sighed

and grunted

inquired

Pigling Bland

48



But


with the police

Pigling Bland

did not like

going on alone

and it was

beginning

to rain

49



To conclude

the adventures

of Alexander--

he gave

his brother

a peppermint

and watched him

out of sight

50




to the house

about tea time

followed

by a damp

subdued little pig

51



he did fairly well

I disposed

of Alexander

in the

neighborhood

52



Over the Hills

4 miles

To Pettitoes Farm

3 miles

Pigling Bland




To Market-town

5 miles

53




how much time

had been wasted

by the frivolity

(silliness)

of Alexander

Pigling Bland

was shocked




54



He glanced

wistfully

(thoughtfully

longingly)

along the road

towards the hills

and then set off

55





all by himself

in a crowded

market

walking obediently

the other way

buttoning up

his coat

against the rain

56



to be stared at

pushed

and hired

by some big

strange farmer

was very

disagreeable--

57



I wish I could have

a little garden

and grow potatoes

said

Pigling Bland

58



he put

his other hand

in his other pocket


Alexanders

He put

his cold hand

in his pocket

and felt his paper

59



He took

a wrong turn

mdashseveral

wrong turns

and

was quite lost

Pigling squealed

then ran back

frantically

hoping

to overtake


60



It grew dark

the wind whistled

the trees

creaked and groaned

61




and cried

Wee wee wee

I cant find my way

home

62



the moon shone

through

the clouds

and Pigling Bland

saw a country

that was new to him

After

an hours wandering

he got out

of the wood

63



and beyond

--in misty distance

mdashlay the hills

The road crossed

a moor

below was

a wide valley

with a river


64




made his wayto it

and crept inside --

65



Bacon and eggs

bacon and eggs

clucked a hen

on a perch

I am afraid

it IS a hen house

but what can I do

said Pigling Bland

wet and cold

and quite tired out

66



To market

to market

Jiggetty-jig

clucked a broody

(wanting to set on

her eggs)


Trap trap trap

cackle

cackle

cackle

scolded


67



In the meantime

he and the hens

fell asleep


they were

all awakened

Pigling Bland

much alarmed

determined


68



The owner


came with a lantern

and a hamper

(basket with a lid)

to catch six fowls


69



He grabbed

the white hen

roosting next

to the cock

70



then

his eye fell upon

Pigling Bland

squeezed up

in a corner

He made


--

71



and dropped him

into the hamper



of the neck

(skin on the back

of the neck)

72



The hamper

containing

six fowls

and a young pig

was no light

weight

Thenhe dropped in

five more


upon the top

of Pigling Bland

73



Pigling

although nearly

scratched to pieces


and the peppermints

inside his clothes

it was taken

down hill

unsteadily

with jerks

74



He looked up

blinking

and saw





the lid was opened

and Pigling

was lifted out

75




whatever

said Mr Piperson

turning Piglings

pockets inside out

76




into a corner





77



Pigling Bland


stool

and sat

on the edge of it


78



Mr Piperson

pulled off a boot

and threw it

againstthe wainscot

(wood paneling)


79



Pigling Bland

warmed

his hands

and eyed him

There was


ldquoShut uprdquo

said

Mr Piperson

80



Mr Piperson

pulled off

the other boot



81



Pigling Bland sat

on the very edge

of the coppy

(cut-off short)

stool

Be quiet

will ye

said

Mr Piperson

82



and made


Mr Piperson

fetched meal

from a chest

83





of the kitchen

was taking

a suppressed

(pushed down)


84



but

he was

too hungry

to be troubled

by noises

85



Mr Piperson



and a third

-after glaring

at Pigling--

86



87

he put away

with much

scuffling

and locked up

Pigling Bland

ate his supper





consulted

an almanac

(reference book)

and felt

Piglings ribs

88



Besides

the hens

had seen this pig

It was too late

in the season

for curing bacon

and he grudged

his meal

89



ldquoYou may sleep

on the rugrdquo

said Mr Peter

Thomas Piperson

Pigling Bland

slept like a top


remains of a flitch

(side of bacon)

and then looked

undecidedly

at Pigling

90



He looked

how much

meal was left

in the chest

and seemed

dissatisfied--


more porridge

(oatmeal)

the weather

was warmer

91




reply

a neighbor

who was giving


a lift

whistled

from the gate

Youll likely

be moving on

again

said he

to Pigling Bland

92



or

Ill come back

and skin ye

said Mr Piperson

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

to shut the door

behind him


93



But

he distrusted

Peter Thomas

It crossed Piglings

mind


for a lift too

he might

still have been

in timefor market

94



After finishing


Pigling had

a look round

the cottage


95



Pigling

ate the peel

and washed up

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

and far away--

He sang


Tom



97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling


next day


He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

105



Pigling Bland

sat by the fire

eating his supper

106

ll



All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

My name

is Pig-wig

Make me more

porridge please

107



Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

108




he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

here

asked

Pigling Bland

110



What for

Bacon hams

replied Pig-wig

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

111



I shall

after supper

said Pig-wig

decidedly


away

exclaimed

the horrified

Pigling

112



Pigling Bland made

more porridge

and watched her

shyly

113



You cant go

in the darkrdquo

said

Pigling Bland


got up


as though she were

going to start

114



I knowwe can see

this little

white house

from the hills

across the river

Pig-wig

looked anxious

Do you knowyour way

by day-light

115



To market


Which way

are YOU going

Mr Pig

116



I might take you

to the bridge

if you have

no objectionrdquo

117

said Pigling

much confused

and sitting

on the edge

of his coppy stool



and she asked

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

and pretend

to sleep

119



Only the corners

replied Pig-wig


with much interest

by the firelight

I thought

you had

eaten them

said Pigling

waking suddenly

120




peppermints

into her pocket

Sing something

she demanded

I wish you wouldnt

he might smell them

through the ceiling

said

the alarmed Pigling

121



Then I will sing

replied Pig-wig


iddy tidditty

I am sorry

I have tooth- ache

said Pigling

much dismayed

122




he sat

with his eyes

half shut

and watched her

I have forgotten

some of the words

123



Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124




umph

and the little pigs

said

wee wee

A funny old

mother pig

lived in a stye

and three little

piggies had she

125



She sang

successfully

through three

or four verses

only

at every verse

her head nodded

a little lower

126



And her

twinkly eyes

closed up--

127

F h h



For somehow they

couldnt say

umph umph

umph

and

they wouldnt say

wee wee wee


grew peaky and lean

and lean

they might

very well be

128



For somehow


umph umph

Pig-wigs head

bobbed

lower and lower


129



a

little round ball

fast asleep on

the hearth-rug

Pigling Bland



He was afraid


Pigling Bland

for the rest


to the chirping

of the crickets

and to the snores


132



She was excited

and

half- frightened

But its dark

How can we

find our way

Early


dark and daylight

Pigling tied up

his little bundle

and woke up

Pig-wig

133



The cock

has crowed

we must start


they might shout

to Mr Piperson

134



Come away

Pig-wig

we can see when

we get used to it

Come

I can hear

them clucking

Pig-wig sat down


to cry

135



He opened

the house door

quietly

and shut it

after them



being peaceable

also

he remembered

the hamper

136



There was

no garden

the neighborhood

of Mr Pipersons

was

all scratched up

by fowls

137



They slipped away

hand in hand


to the road

138



Butall the tune

that he could play

was

`Over the hills

and far away

Tom Tom

the pipers son

stole a pig

and away he ran

139



Why

do you want

to go to market

Pigling

inquired Pig-wig

Come Pig-wig

The sun rose

The sunshine crept

down the slopes

into the peaceful

green valleys

where little white

cottages nestled


142



Thats

Westmorland

said Pig-wig

143



I dont want



and commenced

to dance

singing

-- presently

144




inquired Pig-wig

Pigling Bland

grunted

Have a peppermint

Pigling Bland


145



and followed


Pig-wig ate


146



Pig-wig

keep

under the wall

theres

a man plowing

147




towards

the county boundary

Pig-wig

crossed over

148



Suddenly

Pigling stopped

he heard wheels

149



The reins flapped

on the horses back


a newspaper

Slowly jogging

up the road

below themcame

a tradesmans cart

150



Take that

peppermint

out of your mouth

Pig-wig

we may

have to run

151



And in sight

of the bridgerdquo

said poor Pigling

nearly crying

ldquoDont say

Leave it to me

152

h



The grocer




shied and snorted

He began to walk

frightfully lame


153



He pulled the cart

crossways

and held down

his whip

154



Hallo



at him vacantly

Are you deaf

155



Are you going

to market

Pigling

nodded slowly

I thought

as much

It was yesterday

156

Sh



Show me your

Pigling stared



which had

picked up a stone

157



ldquoPapers

The grocer


158



The grocer

read them

but still seemed

dissatisfied

Pigling fumbled

in all his pockets

and handed up

the papers

159



Pig-wig opened

her mouth

and shut it again

Pigling coughed

asthmatically

This here pig

is a young lady

Alexander

160



Lost stolen

or strayed

10S reward

he looked

suspiciously

at Pig-wig

The grocer ran

his finger down


of his newspaper

161




and speak to him

said the grocer

gathering up

the reins

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

162



but surely

such a VERY

lame pig

could never run

He knew that pigs

are slippery

163



Not yet

Pig-wig

he will look back

164



Then he

looked over

at his

horses heels

The grocer did so

he saw

the two pigs

stock-still

in the middle

of the road

165



after he got

to the plowman

it was lame also


to knock out

166

Now

Pigling Bland

Once upon a time

there was

an old pig

called

Aunt Pettitoes

boy pigs called

Alexander

Pigling Bland

Chin-Chin

to his tail

She had eight

of a family


called

Suck-suck

Yock-yock

and Spot

4



Yus yus yusthey eat

said

Aunt Pettitoes

appetitesmdash

5



Alexander

had squeezed

inside the hoops

of the pig trough

and stuck



Suddenly

there were fearful

squeals

6



it was

washing day

and he had eaten

a piece of soap

Chin-chin


7



And presently

in a basket

of clean clothes

we found another

dirty little pig--

8



Now

was smutty black

all over

Tchut tut tut

is this

grunted

Aunt Pettitoes

9



when it had

been popped

into a tub

it proved to be

Yock-yock

10



I went

into the garden

there I found

Cross-patch

and Suck-suck

rooting up carrots

11



Cross-patch

tried to bite me

I whipped

them myself

and led them out

by the ears

12



Every one of them

has been

in mischief

except Spot

and

Pigling Bland


you are

a worthy person

but your family


13



Good little Spot

We curled

He looked

dissatisfied--


more porridge

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

It crossed Piglings

After finishing


Pigling had

a look round

the cottage


95



Pigling

ate the peel

and washed up

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

and far away--

He sang


Tom



97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling


next day


He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

105



Pigling Bland

sat by the fire

eating his supper

106

All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

My name

Make me more

107



Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

108




he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

here

asked

Pigling Bland

110



What for

Bacon hams

replied Pig-wig

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

111



I shall

said Pig-wig

decidedly


away

exclaimed

the horrified

Pigling

112



Pigling Bland made

more porridge

and watched her

shyly

113



You cant go

said

Pigling Bland


got up


as though she were

going to start

114



I knowwe can see

this little

white house

from the hills

across the river

Pig-wig

looked anxious

Do you knowyour way

by day-light

115



To market


Which way

are YOU going

Mr Pig

116



I might take you

to the bridge

if you have

no objectionrdquo

117

said Pigling

much confused

and sitting

on the edge

of his coppy stool



and she asked

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

and pretend

to sleep

119



Only the corners

replied Pig-wig


with much interest

by the firelight

I thought

you had

eaten them

said Pigling

waking suddenly

peppermints

into her pocket

Sing something

she demanded

I wish you wouldnt

he might smell them

through the ceiling

said

the alarmed Pigling

121



Then I will sing

replied Pig-wig


iddy tidditty

I am sorry

I have tooth- ache

said Pigling

much dismayed

122




he sat

with his eyes

half shut

and watched her

I have forgotten

some of the words

123



Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124




umph

and the little pigs

said

wee wee

A funny old

mother pig

lived in a stye

and three little

piggies had she

125



She sang

successfully

through three

or four verses

only

at every verse

her head nodded

a little lower

126



And her

twinkly eyes

closed up--

127

F h h



For somehow they

couldnt say

umph umph

umph

and

they wouldnt say

and lean

For somehow

He was afraid

for the rest


to the chirping

of the crickets

and to the snores


132



She was excited

and

half- frightened

But its dark

How can we

find our way

Early


dark and daylight

Pigling tied up

his little bundle

and woke up

Pig-wig

133



The cock

has crowed

we must start


they might shout

to Mr Piperson

134



Come away

Pig-wig

we can see when

we get used to it

Come

I can hear

them clucking

Pig-wig sat down


to cry

135



He opened

the house door

quietly

and shut it

after them



being peaceable

also

he remembered

the hamper

136



There was

no garden

the neighborhood

of Mr Pipersons

was

all scratched up

by fowls

137



They slipped away

hand in hand


to the road

138



Butall the tune

that he could play

was

`Over the hills

and far away

Tom Tom

the pipers son

stole a pig

and away he ran

139



Why

do you want

to go to market

Pigling

inquired Pig-wig

Come Pig-wig

a dazzle of light


The sun rose


141



The sunshine crept

down the slopes

into the peaceful

green valleys

where little white

cottages nestled


142



Thats

Westmorland

said Pig-wig

143



I dont want



and commenced

to dance

singing

-- presently

144




inquired Pig-wig

Pigling Bland

grunted

Have a peppermint

said Pig-wig

Pigling Bland


145



and followed


Pig-wig ate

Pig-wig

keep

under the wall

theres

a man plowing

147




towards

the county boundary

Pig-wig

crossed over

148



Suddenly

Pigling stopped

he heard wheels

149



The reins flapped

on the horses back


a newspaper

Slowly jogging

up the road

below themcame

a tradesmans cart

150



Take that

peppermint

out of your mouth

Pig-wig

we may

have to run

151



And in sight

of the bridgerdquo

said poor Pigling

nearly crying

ldquoDont say

one word

Leave it to me

152

h



The grocer




shied and snorted

He began to walk

frightfully lame


153



He pulled the cart

crossways

and held down

his whip

154



Hallo



at him vacantly

Are you deaf

155



Are you going

to market

Pigling

nodded slowly

I thought

as much

It was yesterday

156

Sh



Show me your

license

Pigling stared



which had

picked up a stone

157



ldquoPapers

The grocer


158



The grocer

read them

but still seemed

dissatisfied

Pigling fumbled

in all his pockets

and handed up

the papers

159



Pig-wig opened

her mouth

and shut it again

Pigling coughed

asthmatically

This here pig

is a young lady

is her name

Alexander

160



Lost stolen

or strayed

10S reward

he looked

suspiciously

at Pig-wig

The grocer ran

his finger down


of his newspaper

161




and speak to him

said the grocer

gathering up

the reins

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

162



but surely

such a VERY

lame pig

could never run

He knew that pigs

are slippery

163



Not yet

Pig-wig

he will look back

164



Then he

looked over

at his

horses heels

The grocer did so

he saw

the two pigs

stock-still

in the middle

of the road

165



after he got

to the plowman

it was lame also


to knock out

166

Now



Now

Pig-wig NOW

said

Pigling Bland

Never

did any pigs run

down the long


They raced

Little fat

They ran

Th



They came

to the river

they came

to the bridge-

-they crossed it

hand in hand

171



--then over

the hills

she danced

with Pigling Bland

End

Kenamar

and four little

boy pigs called

Alexander

Pigling Bland

Chin-Chin

and Stumpy


to his tail

She had eight

of a family


called

Cross-patch

Suck-suck

Yock-yock

and Spot

4



Yus yus yusthey eat

said

Aunt Pettitoes



had very fine

appetitesmdash

5



Alexander

had squeezed

inside the hoops

of the pig trough

and stuck



Suddenly

there were fearful

squeals

6



it was

washing day

and he had eaten

a piece of soap

Chin-chin


7



And presently

in a basket

of clean clothes

we found another

dirty little pig--

8



Now



but this pig child

was smutty black

all over

Tchut tut tut

whichever

is this

grunted

Aunt Pettitoes

9



when it had

been popped

into a tub

it proved to be

Yock-yock

10



I went

into the garden

there I found

Cross-patch

and Suck-suck

rooting up carrots

11



Cross-patch

tried to bite me

I whipped

them myself

and led them out

by the ears

12



Every one of them

has been

in mischief

except Spot

and

Pigling Bland


you are

a worthy person

but your family


13



Good little Spot

shall stay at home

to do the housework

but the others

must go



I shall have to get

another cow

14




and


are too many

altogether

15



there will be

more to eat

without them

Yus yus yus

said

Aunt Pettitoes

16



So Chin-chin

and Suck-suck

went away

in a wheel-barrow

and Stumpy

Yock-yock


17



We brushed

their coats

We curled

their tails

and washed

their little faces

and wished them


And the other two

little boy pigs

Pigling Bland

and Alexander

went to market

18



Aunt Pettitoes

wiped her eyes

with a large pocket

handkerchief

then she wiped

Pigling Blands

noseand shed tears

19



Aunt Pettitoes

sighed

and grunted

and addressed

those little pigs

as follows--

then she wiped

Alexanders nose

and shed tears

then she passed

the handkerchief

to Spot

20



Now

Pigling Blandson

Pigling Bland


Take your brother

Alexander

--(Aunt Pettitoes


again)--

Mind your Sunday

clothes

and remember


22



beware of traps

your hind legs

23




Pigling Bland

who was a sedate

little pig

looked solemnly

at his mother

24




to the othermdash

Now son

Alexander

25



Wee wee wee

giggled Alexander--

26




Pigling Bland

go to market

Mindmdashrdquo

27



Wee wee wee

interrupted

Alexander again

28



You put me out

said

Aunt Pettitoes--



29



And remember

said I impressively

if you once cross

the county boundary


30




(paying attention)


permitting two pigs

to go to market

in Lancashire

31



Pigling Bland

listened gravely

Alexander was

hopelessly volatile

(volare to fly)

Attend Alexander



from the policeman

32



Aunt Pettitoes



peppermints

with appropriate

moral sentiments

in screws of paper

I pinnedthe papers

for safety

inside


33



Then they started

Pigling Bland

and Alexander



34



He danced about


singing ndash

This pig went

to the market

this pig

stayed at home

Alexander

made the road

half as long again

by skipping

from side to side

35



This pig had



have given

US for dinner

Pigling

36



Pigling Bland

and Alexander

sat down

and untied

their bundles

37



Give me

one of yours

please Pigling

Alexandergobbled up

his dinner

in no time

he had


38



Alexander


But I wish

to preserve them

for emergencies

said Pigling Bland

doubtfully

39



he dropped the pin

and tried


and the papers

got mixed up


with the pin

that had fastened

his pig paper

and when

Pigling slapped him

40



singing-

Tom Tom

the pipers son

stole a pig

and away he ran



and trotted away

together

41



was

`Over the hills

and far away

But

all the tune

that he could play

42



Whats that

young Sirs

Stole a pig

Where are

your licenses

said the policeman

43



They had nearly

run against him

round a corner

44



Pigling Bland

pulled outhis paper


handed over

something

scrumply--

45



Alexanders nose

lengthened visibly

he had lost it

I had one

indeed I had

Mr Policeman


sweeties


Whats this

this aint

a license

46



Its not likely

they let you start

without


You may walkwith me

47



I see no reason

young Sir

your paper

is all right

Can I come back

too

inquired

Pigling Bland

48



But


with the police

Pigling Bland

did not like

going on alone

and it was

beginning

to rain

49



To conclude

the adventures

of Alexander--

he gave

his brother

a peppermint

and watched him

out of sight

50




to the house

about tea time

followed

by a damp

subdued little pig

51



he did fairly well

when he had

settled down

I disposed

of Alexander

in the

neighborhood

52



Over the Hills

4 miles

To Pettitoes Farm

3 miles

Pigling Bland




To Market-town

5 miles

53




how much time

had been wasted

by the frivolity

(silliness)

of Alexander

Pigling Bland

was shocked




54



He glanced

wistfully

(thoughtfully

longingly)

along the road

towards the hills

and then set off

55





all by himself

in a crowded

market

walking obediently

the other way

buttoning up

his coat

against the rain

56



to be stared at

pushed

and hired

by some big

strange farmer

was very

disagreeable--

57



I wish I could have

a little garden

and grow potatoes

said

Pigling Bland

58



he put

his other hand

in his other pocket


Alexanders

He put

his cold hand

in his pocket

and felt his paper

59



He took

a wrong turn

mdashseveral

wrong turns

and

was quite lost

Pigling squealed

then ran back

frantically

hoping

to overtake


60



It grew dark

the wind whistled

the trees

creaked and groaned

61




and cried

Wee wee wee

I cant find my way

home

62



the moon shone

through

the clouds

and Pigling Bland

saw a country

that was new to him

After

an hours wandering

he got out

of the wood

63



and beyond

--in misty distance

mdashlay the hills

The road crossed

a moor

below was

a wide valley

with a river


64




made his wayto it

and crept inside --

65



Bacon and eggs

bacon and eggs

clucked a hen

on a perch

I am afraid

it IS a hen house

but what can I do

said Pigling Bland

wet and cold

and quite tired out

66



To market

to market

Jiggetty-jig

clucked a broody

(wanting to set on

her eggs)


Trap trap trap

cackle

cackle

cackle

scolded


67



In the meantime

he and the hens

fell asleep


they were

all awakened

Pigling Bland

much alarmed

determined


68



The owner


came with a lantern

and a hamper

(basket with a lid)

to catch six fowls


69



He grabbed

Alexander

had squeezed

inside the hoops

and stuck



Suddenly

there were fearful

squeals

6



it was

washing day

and he had eaten

a piece of soap

Chin-chin


7



And presently

in a basket

of clean clothes

we found another

dirty little pig--

8



Now



but this pig child

was smutty black

all over

Tchut tut tut

whichever

is this

grunted

Aunt Pettitoes

9



when it had

been popped

into a tub

it proved to be

Yock-yock

10



I went

into the garden

there I found

Cross-patch

and Suck-suck

rooting up carrots

11



Cross-patch

tried to bite me

I whipped

them myself

and led them out

by the ears

12



Every one of them

has been

in mischief

except Spot

and

Pigling Bland


you are

a worthy person

but your family


13



Good little Spot

to do the housework

but the others

I shall have to get

another cow

altogether

15



there will be

more to eat

Yus yus yus

said

Aunt Pettitoes

So Chin-chin

went away

in a wheel-barrow

and Stumpy

Yock-yock


17



We brushed

their coats

We curled

their tails

and washed

their little faces

and wished them


And the other two

little boy pigs

Pigling Bland

and Alexander

went to market

18



Aunt Pettitoes

wiped her eyes

with a large pocket

handkerchief

then she wiped

Pigling Blands

noseand shed tears

19



Aunt Pettitoes

sighed

and grunted

and addressed

those little pigs

as follows--

then she wiped

Alexanders nose

and shed tears

then she passed

the handkerchief

to Spot

20



Now

Pigling Bland

again)--

23




Pigling Bland

who was a sedate

little pig

looked solemnly

at his mother

24




to the othermdash

Now son

25



Wee wee wee

giggled Alexander--

26




Pigling Bland

27

interrupted

Alexander again

28



You put me out

Aunt Pettitoes--



29



And remember

said I impressively

if you once cross

the county boundary


30




(paying attention)


permitting two pigs

to go to market

in Lancashire

31



Pigling Bland

listened gravely

Alexander was

hopelessly volatile

(volare to fly)

Attend Alexander

32



Aunt Pettitoes



peppermints

with appropriate

moral sentiments

in screws of paper

I pinnedthe papers

for safety

inside


33



Then they started

Pigling Bland

and Alexander



34



He danced about


singing ndash

This pig went

to the market

this pig

stayed at home

Alexander

made the road

half as long again

by skipping

from side to side

35



This pig had

US for dinner

Pigling

36



Pigling Bland

and Alexander

sat down

and untied

their bundles

37



Give me

one of yours

please Pigling

Alexandergobbled up

his dinner

in no time

he had


38



Alexander


But I wish

to preserve them

for emergencies

said Pigling Bland

doubtfully

39



he dropped the pin

and tried


and the papers

got mixed up


with the pin

that had fastened

his pig paper

and when

Pigling slapped him

40



singing-

Tom Tom

the pipers son

stole a pig

and away he ran



and trotted away

together

41



was

`Over the hills

and far away

But

all the tune

that he could play

42



Whats that

young Sirs

Stole a pig

Where are

your licenses

said the policeman

43



They had nearly

run against him

round a corner

44



Pigling Bland

pulled outhis paper


handed over

something

scrumply--

45



Alexanders nose

lengthened visibly

he had lost it

I had one

indeed I had

Mr Policeman


sweeties


Whats this

this aint

a license

46



Its not likely

they let you start

without


You may walkwith me

47



I see no reason

young Sir

your paper

is all right

Can I come back

too

inquired

Pigling Bland

48



But


with the police

Pigling Bland

did not like

going on alone

and it was

beginning

to rain

49



To conclude

the adventures

of Alexander--

he gave

his brother

a peppermint

and watched him

out of sight

50




to the house

about tea time

followed

by a damp

subdued little pig

51



he did fairly well

when he had

settled down

I disposed

of Alexander

in the

neighborhood

52



Over the Hills

4 miles

To Pettitoes Farm

3 miles

Pigling Bland




To Market-town

5 miles

53




how much time

had been wasted

by the frivolity

(silliness)

of Alexander

Pigling Bland

was shocked




54



He glanced

wistfully

(thoughtfully

longingly)

along the road

towards the hills

and then set off

55





all by himself

in a crowded

market

walking obediently

the other way

buttoning up

his coat

against the rain

56



to be stared at

pushed

and hired

by some big

strange farmer

was very

disagreeable--

57



I wish I could have

a little garden

and grow potatoes

said

Pigling Bland

58



he put

his other hand

in his other pocket


Alexanders

He put

his cold hand

in his pocket

and felt his paper

59



He took

a wrong turn

mdashseveral

wrong turns

and

was quite lost

Pigling squealed

then ran back

frantically

hoping

to overtake


60



It grew dark

the wind whistled

the trees

creaked and groaned

61




and cried

Wee wee wee

I cant find my way

home

62



the moon shone

through

the clouds

and Pigling Bland

saw a country

that was new to him

After

an hours wandering

he got out

of the wood

63



and beyond

--in misty distance

mdashlay the hills

The road crossed

a moor

below was

a wide valley

with a river


64




made his wayto it

and crept inside --

65



Bacon and eggs

bacon and eggs

clucked a hen

on a perch

I am afraid

it IS a hen house

but what can I do

said Pigling Bland

wet and cold

and quite tired out

66



To market

to market

Jiggetty-jig

clucked a broody

(wanting to set on

her eggs)


Trap trap trap

cackle

cackle

cackle

scolded


67



In the meantime

he and the hens

fell asleep


they were

all awakened

Pigling Bland

much alarmed

determined


68



The owner


came with a lantern

and a hamper

(basket with a lid)

to catch six fowls


69



He grabbed

the white hen

roosting next

to the cock

70



then

his eye fell upon

Pigling Bland

squeezed up

in a corner

He made


--

71



and dropped him

into the hamper



of the neck

(skin on the back

of the neck)

72



The hamper

containing

six fowls

and a young pig

was no light

weight

Thenhe dropped in

five more


upon the top

of Pigling Bland

73



Pigling

although nearly

scratched to pieces


and the peppermints

inside his clothes

it was taken

down hill

unsteadily

with jerks

74



He looked up

blinking

and saw





the lid was opened

and Pigling

was lifted out

75




whatever

said Mr Piperson

turning Piglings

pockets inside out

76




into a corner





77



Pigling Bland


stool

and sat

on the edge of it


78



Mr Piperson

pulled off a boot

and threw it

againstthe wainscot

(wood paneling)


79



Pigling Bland

warmed

his hands

and eyed him

There was


ldquoShut uprdquo

said

Mr Piperson

80



Mr Piperson

pulled off

the other boot



81



Pigling Bland sat

on the very edge

of the coppy

(cut-off short)

stool

Be quiet

will ye

said

Mr Piperson

82



and made


Mr Piperson

fetched meal

from a chest

83





of the kitchen

was taking

a suppressed

(pushed down)


84



but

he was

too hungry

to be troubled

by noises

85



Mr Piperson



and a third

-after glaring

at Pigling--

86



87

he put away

with much

scuffling

and locked up

Pigling Bland

ate his supper





consulted

an almanac

(reference book)

and felt

Piglings ribs

88



Besides

the hens

had seen this pig

It was too late

in the season

for curing bacon

and he grudged

his meal

89



ldquoYou may sleep

on the rugrdquo

said Mr Peter

Thomas Piperson

Pigling Bland

slept like a top


remains of a flitch

(side of bacon)

and then looked

undecidedly

at Pigling

90



He looked

how much

meal was left

in the chest

and seemed

dissatisfied--


more porridge

(oatmeal)

the weather

was warmer

91




reply

a neighbor

who was giving


a lift

whistled

from the gate

Youll likely

be moving on

again

said he

to Pigling Bland

92



or

Ill come back

and skin ye

said Mr Piperson

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

to shut the door

behind him


93



But

he distrusted

Peter Thomas

It crossed Piglings

mind


for a lift too

he might

still have been

in timefor market

94



After finishing


Pigling had

a look round

the cottage


95



Pigling

ate the peel

and washed up

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

and far away--

He sang


Tom



97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling


next day


He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

105



Pigling Bland

sat by the fire

eating his supper

106

ll



All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

My name

is Pig-wig

Make me more

porridge please

107



Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

108




he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

here

asked

Pigling Bland

110



What for

Bacon hams

replied Pig-wig

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

111



I shall

after supper

said Pig-wig

decidedly


away

exclaimed

the horrified

Pigling

112



Pigling Bland made

more porridge

and watched her

shyly

113



You cant go

in the darkrdquo

said

Pigling Bland


got up


as though she were

going to start

114



I knowwe can see

this little

white house

from the hills

across the river

Pig-wig

looked anxious

Do you knowyour way

by day-light

115



To market


Which way

are YOU going

Mr Pig

116



I might take you

to the bridge

if you have

no objectionrdquo

117

said Pigling

much confused

and sitting

on the edge

of his coppy stool



and she asked

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

and pretend

to sleep

119



Only the corners

replied Pig-wig


with much interest

by the firelight

I thought

you had

eaten them

said Pigling

waking suddenly

120




peppermints

into her pocket

Sing something

she demanded

I wish you wouldnt

he might smell them

through the ceiling

said

the alarmed Pigling

121



Then I will sing

replied Pig-wig


iddy tidditty

I am sorry

I have tooth- ache

said Pigling

much dismayed

122




he sat

with his eyes

half shut

and watched her

I have forgotten

some of the words

123



Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124

inquired

Pigling Bland

48



But


with the police

Pigling Bland

did not like

going on alone

and it was

beginning

to rain

49



To conclude

the adventures

of Alexander--

he gave

his brother

a peppermint

by a damp

subdued little pig

53




how much time

had been wasted

by the frivolity

(silliness)

of Alexander

Pigling Bland

was shocked




54



He glanced

wistfully

(thoughtfully

longingly)

along the road

towards the hills

and then set off

55





all by himself

in a crowded

market

walking obediently

the other way

buttoning up

his coat

against the rain

56



to be stared at

pushed

and hired

by some big

strange farmer

was very

disagreeable--

57



I wish I could have

a little garden

and grow potatoes

said

Pigling Bland

58



he put

his other hand

in his other pocket


Alexanders

He put

his cold hand

in his pocket

and felt his paper

59



He took

a wrong turn

mdashseveral

wrong turns

and

was quite lost

Pigling squealed

then ran back

frantically

hoping

to overtake


60



It grew dark

the wind whistled

the trees

creaked and groaned

61




and cried

Wee wee wee

I cant find my way

home

62



the moon shone

through

the clouds

and Pigling Bland

saw a country

that was new to him

After

an hours wandering

he got out

of the wood

63



and beyond

--in misty distance

mdashlay the hills

The road crossed

a moor

below was

a wide valley

with a river


64




made his wayto it

and crept inside --

65



Bacon and eggs

clucked a hen

on a perch

I am afraid

it IS a hen house

but what can I do

said Pigling Bland

wet and cold

and quite tired out

66



To market

Jiggetty-jig

clucked a broody

(wanting to set on

her eggs)


Trap trap trap

cackle

scolded


67



In the meantime

he and the hens

fell asleep


they were

all awakened

Pigling Bland

much alarmed

determined


68



The owner


came with a lantern

and a hamper

(basket with a lid)

to catch six fowls


69



He grabbed

the white hen

roosting next

to the cock

70



then

his eye fell upon

Pigling Bland

squeezed up

in a corner

He made


--

71



and dropped him

into the hamper



of the neck

(skin on the back

of the neck)

72



The hamper

containing

six fowls

and a young pig

was no light

weight

Thenhe dropped in

five more


upon the top

of Pigling Bland

73



Pigling

although nearly

scratched to pieces


and the peppermints

inside his clothes

it was taken

down hill

unsteadily

with jerks

74



He looked up

blinking

and saw





the lid was opened

and Pigling

was lifted out

75




whatever

said Mr Piperson

turning Piglings

pockets inside out

76




into a corner





77



Pigling Bland


stool

and sat

on the edge of it


78



Mr Piperson

pulled off a boot

and threw it

againstthe wainscot

(wood paneling)


79



Pigling Bland

warmed

his hands

and eyed him

There was


ldquoShut uprdquo

said

Mr Piperson

80



Mr Piperson

pulled off

the other boot



81



Pigling Bland sat

on the very edge

of the coppy

(cut-off short)

stool

Be quiet

will ye

said

Mr Piperson

82



and made


Mr Piperson

fetched meal

from a chest

83





of the kitchen

was taking

a suppressed

(pushed down)


84



but

he was

too hungry

to be troubled

by noises

85



Mr Piperson



and a third

-after glaring

at Pigling--

86



87

he put away

with much

scuffling

and locked up

Pigling Bland

ate his supper





consulted

an almanac

(reference book)

and felt

Piglings ribs

88



Besides

the hens

had seen this pig

It was too late

in the season

for curing bacon

and he grudged

his meal

89



ldquoYou may sleep

on the rugrdquo

said Mr Peter

Thomas Piperson

Pigling Bland

slept like a top


remains of a flitch

(side of bacon)

and then looked

undecidedly

at Pigling

90



He looked

how much

meal was left

in the chest

and seemed

dissatisfied--


more porridge

(oatmeal)

the weather

was warmer

91




reply

a neighbor

who was giving


a lift

whistled

from the gate

Youll likely

be moving on

again

said he

to Pigling Bland

92



or

Ill come back

and skin ye

said Mr Piperson

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

to shut the door

behind him


93



But

he distrusted

Peter Thomas

It crossed Piglings

mind


for a lift too

he might

still have been

in timefor market

94



After finishing


Pigling had

a look round

the cottage


95



Pigling

ate the peel

and washed up

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

and far away--

He sang


Tom



97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling


next day


He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

105



Pigling Bland

sat by the fire

eating his supper

106

ll



All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

My name

is Pig-wig

Make me more

porridge please

107



Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

108




he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

here

asked

Pigling Bland

110



What for

Bacon hams

replied Pig-wig

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

111



I shall

after supper

said Pig-wig

decidedly


away

exclaimed

the horrified

Pigling

112



Pigling Bland made

more porridge

and watched her

shyly

113



You cant go

in the darkrdquo

said

Pigling Bland


got up


as though she were

going to start

114



I knowwe can see

this little

white house

from the hills

across the river

Pig-wig

looked anxious

Do you knowyour way

by day-light

115



To market


Which way

are YOU going

Mr Pig

116



I might take you

to the bridge

if you have

no objectionrdquo

117

said Pigling

much confused

and sitting

on the edge

of his coppy stool



and she asked

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

and pretend

to sleep

119



Only the corners

replied Pig-wig


with much interest

by the firelight

I thought

you had

eaten them

said Pigling

waking suddenly

120




peppermints

into her pocket

Sing something

she demanded

I wish you wouldnt

he might smell them

through the ceiling

said

the alarmed Pigling

121



Then I will sing

replied Pig-wig


iddy tidditty

I am sorry

I have tooth- ache

said Pigling

much dismayed

122




he sat

with his eyes

half shut

and watched her

I have forgotten

some of the words

123



Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124




umph

and the little pigs

said

wee wee

A funny old

mother pig

lived in a stye

and three little

piggies had she

125



She sang

successfully

through three

or four verses

only

at every verse

her head nodded

a little lower

126



And her

twinkly eyes

closed up--

127

F h h



For somehow they

couldnt say

umph umph

umph

and

they wouldnt say

wee wee wee


grew peaky and lean

and lean

they might

very well be

128



For somehow

He was afraid

for the rest


to the chirping

of the crickets

and to the snores


132



She was excited

and

half- frightened

But its dark

How can we

find our way

Early


dark and daylight

Pigling tied up

his little bundle

and woke up

Pig-wig

133



The cock

has crowed

we must start


they might shout

to Mr Piperson

134



Come away

Pig-wig

we can see when

we get used to it

Come

I can hear

them clucking

Pig-wig sat down


to cry

135



He opened

the house door

quietly

and shut it

after them



being peaceable

also

he remembered

the hamper

136



There was

no garden

the neighborhood

of Mr Pipersons

was

all scratched up

by fowls

137



They slipped away

hand in hand


to the road

138



Butall the tune

that he could play

was

`Over the hills

and far away

Tom Tom

the pipers son

stole a pig

and away he ran

139



Why

do you want

to go to market

Pigling

inquired Pig-wig

Come Pig-wig

The sun rose

The sunshine crept

down the slopes

into the peaceful

green valleys

where little white

cottages nestled


142



Thats

said Pig-wig

143



I dont want



and commenced

to dance

singing

-- presently

144




inquired Pig-wig

Pigling Bland

grunted

Pigling Bland


145



and followed


Pig-wig ate

Pig-wig

under the wall

theres

a man plowing

147




towards

the county boundary

Pig-wig

crossed over

148



Suddenly

Pigling stopped

he heard wheels

149



The reins flapped

on the horses back


a newspaper

Slowly jogging

up the road

below themcame

a tradesmans cart

150



Take that

peppermint

out of your mouth

Pig-wig

we may

have to run

151



And in sight

of the bridgerdquo

said poor Pigling

nearly crying

ldquoDont say

Leave it to me

152

h



The grocer




shied and snorted

He began to walk

frightfully lame


153



He pulled the cart

crossways

and held down

his whip

154



Hallo



at him vacantly

Are you deaf

155



Are you going

to market

Pigling

nodded slowly

I thought

as much

It was yesterday

156

Sh

Pigling stared



which had

picked up a stone

157



ldquoPapers

The grocer


158



The grocer

read them

but still seemed

dissatisfied

Pigling fumbled

in all his pockets

and handed up

the papers

159



Pig-wig opened

her mouth

and shut it again

Pigling coughed

asthmatically

This here pig

is a young lady

Alexander

160



Lost stolen

or strayed

10S reward

he looked

suspiciously

at Pig-wig

The grocer ran

his finger down


of his newspaper

161




and speak to him

said the grocer

gathering up

the reins

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

162



but surely

such a VERY

lame pig

could never run

He knew that pigs

are slippery

163



Not yet

Pig-wig

he will look back

164



Then he

looked over

at his

horses heels

The grocer did so

he saw

the two pigs

stock-still

in the middle

of the road

165



after he got

to the plowman

it was lame also


to knock out

166

Now

Pigling Bland

Suddenly a little

She

A funny old

She was excited

Early

Pigling tied up

his little bundle

and woke up

Pig-wig

133



The cock

has crowed

they might shout

to Mr Piperson

134



Come away

Pig-wig

we can see when

we get used to it

Come

I can hear

them clucking

Pig-wig sat down


to cry

135



He opened

the house door

quietly

and shut it

after them



being peaceable

also

he remembered

the hamper

136



There was

no garden

the neighborhood

of Mr Pipersons

was

all scratched up

by fowls

137



They slipped away

hand in hand


to the road

138



Butall the tune

that he could play

was

`Over the hills

and far away

Tom Tom

the pipers son

stole a pig

and away he ran

Why

do you want

Pigling

inquired Pig-wig

Come Pig-wig

The sun rose

The sunshine crept

down the slopes

into the peaceful

green valleys

where little white

cottages nestled

Westmorland

said Pig-wig

143



I dont want



and commenced

to dance

singing

-- presently

144




inquired Pig-wig

Pigling Bland

grunted

Have a peppermint

Pigling Bland

and followed


Pig-wig ate

Pig-wig

keep

under the wall

theres

a man plowing

147




towards

the county boundary

Pig-wig

crossed over

148



Suddenly

Pigling stopped

he heard wheels

149



The reins flapped

on the horses back


a newspaper

Slowly jogging

up the road

below themcame

a tradesmans cart

150



Take that

peppermint

out of your mouth

Pig-wig

we may

have to run

151



And in sight

of the bridgerdquo

said poor Pigling

nearly crying

ldquoDont say

Leave it to me

152

h



The grocer




shied and snorted

He began to walk

frightfully lame


153



He pulled the cart

crossways

and held down

his whip

154



Hallo



at him vacantly

Are you deaf

155



Are you going

to market

Pigling

nodded slowly

I thought

as much

It was yesterday

156

Sh



Show me your

license

Pigling stared



which had

picked up a stone

157



ldquoPapers

The grocer


158



The grocer

read them

but still seemed

dissatisfied

Pigling fumbled

in all his pockets

and handed up

the papers

159



Pig-wig opened

her mouth

and shut it again

Pigling coughed

asthmatically

This here pig

is a young lady

is her name

Alexander

160



Lost stolen

or strayed

10S reward

he looked

suspiciously

at Pig-wig

The grocer ran

his finger down


of his newspaper

161




and speak to him

said the grocer

gathering up

the reins

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

162



but surely

such a VERY

lame pig

could never run

He knew that pigs

are slippery

163



Not yet

Pig-wig

he will look back

164



Then he

looked over

at his

horses heels

The grocer did so

he saw

the two pigs

stock-still

in the middle

of the road

165



after he got

to the plowman

it was lame also


to knock out

166

Now



Now

Pig-wig NOW

said

Pigling Bland

Never

They raced

They came

to the river

they came

to the bridge-

with Pigling Bland

Kenamar

And presently

in a basket

of clean clothes

we found another

dirty little pig--

8



Now



but this pig child

was smutty black

all over

Tchut tut tut

whichever

is this

grunted

Aunt Pettitoes

9



when it had

been popped

into a tub

it proved to be

Yock-yock

10



I went

into the garden

there I found

Cross-patch

and Suck-suck

rooting up carrots

11



Cross-patch

tried to bite me

I whipped

them myself

and led them out

by the ears

12



Every one of them

has been

in mischief

except Spot

and

Pigling Bland


you are

a worthy person

but your family


13



Good little Spot

shall stay at home

to do the housework

but the others

must go



I shall have to get

another cow

14




and


are too many

altogether

15



there will be

more to eat

without them

Yus yus yus

said

Aunt Pettitoes

16



So Chin-chin

and Suck-suck

went away

in a wheel-barrow

and Stumpy

Yock-yock


17



We brushed

their coats

We curled

their tails

and washed

their little faces

and wished them


And the other two

little boy pigs

Pigling Bland

and Alexander

went to market

18



Aunt Pettitoes

wiped her eyes

with a large pocket

handkerchief

then she wiped

Pigling Blands

noseand shed tears

19



Aunt Pettitoes

sighed

and grunted

and addressed

those little pigs

as follows--

then she wiped

Alexanders nose

and shed tears

then she passed

the handkerchief

to Spot

20



Now

Pigling Blandson

Pigling Bland


Take your brother

Alexander

--(Aunt Pettitoes


again)--

Mind your Sunday

clothes

22



beware of traps

your hind legs

23




Pigling Bland

who was a sedate

little pig

looked solemnly

at his mother

24




to the othermdash

Now son

Alexander

25



Wee wee wee

giggled Alexander--

26




Pigling Bland

go to market

27



Wee wee wee

interrupted

Alexander again

28



You put me out

said

Aunt Pettitoes--



29



And remember

said I impressively

if you once cross

the county boundary


30




(paying attention)


permitting two pigs

to go to market

in Lancashire

31



Pigling Bland

listened gravely

Alexander was

hopelessly volatile

(volare to fly)

Attend Alexander



from the policeman

32



Aunt Pettitoes



peppermints

with appropriate

moral sentiments

in screws of paper

I pinnedthe papers

for safety

inside


33



Then they started

Pigling Bland

and Alexander



34



He danced about


singing ndash

This pig went

to the market

this pig

stayed at home

Alexander

made the road

half as long again

by skipping

from side to side

35



This pig had

US for dinner

Pigling

36



Pigling Bland

and Alexander

sat down

and untied

their bundles

37



Give me

one of yours

please Pigling

Alexandergobbled up

his dinner

in no time

he had


38



Alexander


But I wish

to preserve them

for emergencies

said Pigling Bland

doubtfully

39



he dropped the pin

and tried


and the papers

got mixed up


with the pin

that had fastened

his pig paper

and when

Pigling slapped him

40



singing-

Tom Tom

the pipers son

stole a pig

and away he ran



and trotted away

together

41



was

`Over the hills

and far away

But

all the tune

that he could play

42



Whats that

young Sirs

Stole a pig

Where are

your licenses

said the policeman

43



They had nearly

run against him

round a corner

44



Pigling Bland

pulled outhis paper


handed over

something

scrumply--

45



Alexanders nose

lengthened visibly

he had lost it

I had one

indeed I had

Mr Policeman


sweeties


Whats this

this aint

46



Its not likely

they let you start

without


You may walkwith me

47



I see no reason

young Sir

your paper

is all right

Can I come back

too

inquired

Pigling Bland

48



But


with the police

Pigling Bland

did not like

going on alone

and it was

beginning

to rain

49



To conclude

the adventures

of Alexander--

he gave

his brother

a peppermint

and watched him

out of sight

50




to the house

about tea time

followed

by a damp

subdued little pig

51



he did fairly well

when he had

settled down

I disposed

of Alexander

in the

neighborhood

52



Over the Hills

4 miles

To Pettitoes Farm

3 miles

Pigling Bland




To Market-town

5 miles

53




how much time

had been wasted

by the frivolity

(silliness)

of Alexander

Pigling Bland

was shocked




54



He glanced

wistfully

(thoughtfully

longingly)

along the road

towards the hills

and then set off

55





all by himself

in a crowded

market

walking obediently

the other way

buttoning up

his coat

against the rain

56



to be stared at

pushed

and hired

by some big

strange farmer

was very

disagreeable--

57



I wish I could have

a little garden

and grow potatoes

said

Pigling Bland

58



he put

his other hand

in his other pocket


Alexanders

He put

his cold hand

in his pocket

and felt his paper

59



He took

a wrong turn

mdashseveral

wrong turns

and

was quite lost

Pigling squealed

then ran back

frantically

hoping

to overtake


60



It grew dark

the wind whistled

the trees

creaked and groaned

61




and cried

Wee wee wee

I cant find my way

home

62



the moon shone

through

the clouds

and Pigling Bland

saw a country

that was new to him

After

an hours wandering

he got out

of the wood

63



and beyond

--in misty distance

mdashlay the hills

The road crossed

a moor

below was

a wide valley

with a river


64




made his wayto it

and crept inside --

65



Bacon and eggs

bacon and eggs

clucked a hen

on a perch

I am afraid

it IS a hen house

but what can I do

said Pigling Bland

wet and cold

and quite tired out

66



To market

to market

Jiggetty-jig

clucked a broody

(wanting to set on

her eggs)


Trap trap trap

cackle

cackle

cackle

scolded


67



In the meantime

he and the hens

fell asleep


they were

all awakened

Pigling Bland

much alarmed

determined


68



The owner


came with a lantern

and a hamper

(basket with a lid)

to catch six fowls


69



He grabbed

the white hen

roosting next

to the cock

70



then

his eye fell upon

Pigling Bland

squeezed up

in a corner

He made

71



and dropped him

into the hamper



of the neck

of the neck)

72



The hamper

containing

six fowls

Thenhe dropped in

five more

of Pigling Bland

Pigling

scratched to pieces

down hill

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

such a VERY

He knew that pigs

Not yet

12



Every one of them

Yock-yock


17



We brushed

We curled

their little faces

and wished them


And the other two

little boy pigs

Pigling Bland

went to market

18



Aunt Pettitoes

wiped her eyes

with a large pocket

handkerchief

then she wiped

Pigling Blands

19



Aunt Pettitoes

sighed

and grunted

those little pigs

as follows--

Then they started

34



He danced about

This pig went

Alexander

made the road

half as long again

by skipping

from side to side

35



This pig had

Pigling Bland

sat down

and untied

their bundles

37



Give me

Alexandergobbled up

his dinner

in no time

he had


38



Alexander


But I wish

to preserve them

for emergencies

said Pigling Bland

doubtfully

39



he dropped the pin

and tried


and the papers

got mixed up


with the pin

that had fastened

his pig paper

and when

Pigling slapped him

40



singing-

Tom Tom

the pipers son

stole a pig

and away he ran



and trotted away

together

41



was

`Over the hills

and far away

But

all the tune

that he could play

42



Whats that

young Sirs

Stole a pig

Where are

your licenses

said the policeman

43



They had nearly

run against him

round a corner

44



Pigling Bland

pulled outhis paper


handed over

something

scrumply--

45



Alexanders nose

lengthened visibly

he had lost it

I had one

indeed I had

Mr Policeman


sweeties


Whats this

this aint

46



Its not likely

they let you start

without


You may walkwith me

47



I see no reason

young Sir

your paper

is all right

Can I come back

too

inquired

Pigling Bland

48



But


with the police

Pigling Bland

did not like

going on alone

and it was

beginning

to rain

49



To conclude

the adventures

of Alexander--

he gave

his brother

a peppermint

and watched him

out of sight

50




to the house

about tea time

followed

by a damp

subdued little pig

51



he did fairly well

when he had

settled down

I disposed

of Alexander

in the

neighborhood

52



Over the Hills

4 miles

To Pettitoes Farm

3 miles

Pigling Bland




To Market-town

5 miles

53




how much time

had been wasted

by the frivolity

(silliness)

of Alexander

Pigling Bland

was shocked




54



He glanced

wistfully

(thoughtfully

longingly)

along the road

towards the hills

and then set off

55





all by himself

in a crowded

market

walking obediently

the other way

buttoning up

his coat

against the rain

56



to be stared at

pushed

and hired

by some big

strange farmer

was very

disagreeable--

57



I wish I could have

a little garden

and grow potatoes

said

Pigling Bland

58



he put

his other hand

in his other pocket


Alexanders

He put

his cold hand

in his pocket

and felt his paper

59



He took

a wrong turn

mdashseveral

wrong turns

and

was quite lost

Pigling squealed

then ran back

frantically

hoping

to overtake


60



It grew dark

the wind whistled

the trees

creaked and groaned

61




and cried

Wee wee wee

I cant find my way

home

62



the moon shone

through

the clouds

and Pigling Bland

saw a country

that was new to him

After

an hours wandering

he got out

of the wood

63



and beyond

--in misty distance

mdashlay the hills

The road crossed

a moor

below was

a wide valley

with a river


64




made his wayto it

and crept inside --

65



Bacon and eggs

bacon and eggs

clucked a hen

on a perch

I am afraid

it IS a hen house

but what can I do

said Pigling Bland

wet and cold

and quite tired out

66



To market

to market

Jiggetty-jig

clucked a broody

(wanting to set on

her eggs)


Trap trap trap

cackle

cackle

cackle

scolded


67



In the meantime

he and the hens

fell asleep


they were

all awakened

Pigling Bland

much alarmed

determined


68



The owner


came with a lantern

and a hamper

(basket with a lid)

to catch six fowls


69



He grabbed

the white hen

roosting next

to the cock

70



then

his eye fell upon

Pigling Bland

squeezed up

in a corner

He made


--

71



and dropped him

into the hamper



of the neck

(skin on the back

of the neck)

72



The hamper

containing

six fowls

and a young pig

was no light

weight

Thenhe dropped in

five more


upon the top

of Pigling Bland

73



Pigling

although nearly

scratched to pieces


and the peppermints

inside his clothes

it was taken

down hill

unsteadily

with jerks

74



He looked up

blinking

and saw





the lid was opened

and Pigling

was lifted out

75




whatever

said Mr Piperson

turning Piglings

pockets inside out

76




into a corner





77



Pigling Bland


stool

and sat

on the edge of it


78



Mr Piperson

pulled off a boot

and threw it

againstthe wainscot

(wood paneling)


79



Pigling Bland

warmed

his hands

and eyed him

There was


ldquoShut uprdquo

said

Mr Piperson

80



Mr Piperson

pulled off

the other boot



81



Pigling Bland sat

on the very edge

of the coppy

(cut-off short)

stool

Be quiet

will ye

said

Mr Piperson

82



and made


Mr Piperson

fetched meal

from a chest

83





of the kitchen

was taking

a suppressed

(pushed down)


84



but

he was

too hungry

to be troubled

by noises

85



Mr Piperson



and a third

-after glaring

at Pigling--

86



87

he put away

with much

scuffling

and locked up

Pigling Bland

ate his supper





consulted

an almanac

(reference book)

and felt

Piglings ribs

88



Besides

the hens

had seen this pig

It was too late

in the season

for curing bacon

and he grudged

his meal

89



ldquoYou may sleep

on the rugrdquo

said Mr Peter

Thomas Piperson

Pigling Bland

slept like a top


remains of a flitch

(side of bacon)

and then looked

undecidedly

at Pigling

90



He looked

how much

meal was left

in the chest

and seemed

dissatisfied--


more porridge

(oatmeal)

the weather

was warmer

91




reply

a neighbor

who was giving


a lift

whistled

from the gate

Youll likely

be moving on

again

said he

to Pigling Bland

92



or

Ill come back

and skin ye

said Mr Piperson

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

to shut the door

behind him


93



But

he distrusted

Peter Thomas

It crossed Piglings

mind


for a lift too

he might

still have been

in timefor market

94



After finishing


Pigling had

a look round

the cottage


95



Pigling

ate the peel

and washed up

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

and far away--

He sang


Tom



97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling


next day


He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

105



Pigling Bland

sat by the fire

eating his supper

106

ll



All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

My name

is Pig-wig

Make me more

porridge please

107



Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

108




he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

here

asked

Pigling Bland

110



What for

Bacon hams

replied Pig-wig

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

111



I shall

after supper

said Pig-wig

decidedly


away

exclaimed

the horrified

Pigling

112



Pigling Bland made

more porridge

and watched her

shyly

113



You cant go

in the darkrdquo

said

Pigling Bland


got up


as though she were

going to start

114



I knowwe can see

this little

white house

from the hills

across the river

Pig-wig

looked anxious

Do you knowyour way

by day-light

115



To market


Which way

are YOU going

Mr Pig

116



I might take you

to the bridge

if you have

no objectionrdquo

117

said Pigling

much confused

and sitting

on the edge

of his coppy stool



and she asked

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

and pretend

to sleep

119



Only the corners

replied Pig-wig


with much interest

by the firelight

I thought

you had

eaten them

said Pigling

waking suddenly

120




peppermints

into her pocket

Sing something

she demanded

I wish you wouldnt

he might smell them

through the ceiling

said

the alarmed Pigling

121



Then I will sing

replied Pig-wig


iddy tidditty

I am sorry

I have tooth- ache

said Pigling

much dismayed

122




he sat

with his eyes

half shut

and watched her

I have forgotten

some of the words

123



Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124




umph

and the little pigs

said

wee wee

A funny old

mother pig

lived in a stye

and three little

piggies had she

125



She sang

successfully

through three

or four verses

only

at every verse

her head nodded

a little lower

126



And her

twinkly eyes

closed up--

127

F h h



For somehow they

couldnt say

umph umph

umph

and

they wouldnt say

wee wee wee


grew peaky and lean

and lean

very well be

128



For somehow

for the rest


to the chirping

of the crickets

and to the snores


132



She was excited

and

half- frightened

But its dark

How can we

Early


dark and daylight

Pigling tied up

his little bundle

and woke up

Pig-wig

133



The cock

has crowed

to Mr Piperson

134



Come away

inquired

Pigling Bland

48



But


with the police

Pigling Bland

did not like

going on alone

and it was

beginning

to rain

49



To conclude

the adventures

of Alexander--

he gave

his brother

a peppermint

and watched him

out of sight

50




to the house

about tea time

followed

by a damp

subdued little pig

51



he did fairly well

Pigling Bland




To Market-town

53




how much time

had been wasted

by the frivolity

(silliness)

of Alexander

Pigling Bland

was shocked




54



He glanced

wistfully

(thoughtfully

longingly)

along the road

towards the hills

and then set off

55





all by himself

in a crowded

market

walking obediently

the other way

buttoning up

his coat

against the rain

56



to be stared at

pushed

and hired

by some big

strange farmer

was very

disagreeable--

57



I wish I could have

a little garden

and grow potatoes

said

Pigling Bland

58



he put

his other hand

in his other pocket


Alexanders

He put

his cold hand

in his pocket

and felt his paper

59



He took

a wrong turn

mdashseveral

wrong turns

and

was quite lost

Pigling squealed

then ran back

frantically

hoping

to overtake


60



It grew dark

the wind whistled

the trees

creaked and groaned

61




and cried

Wee wee wee

I cant find my way

home

62



the moon shone

through

the clouds

and Pigling Bland

saw a country

that was new to him

After

an hours wandering

he got out

of the wood

63



and beyond

--in misty distance

mdashlay the hills

The road crossed

a moor

below was

a wide valley

with a river


64




made his wayto it

and crept inside --

65



Bacon and eggs

clucked a hen

on a perch

I am afraid

but what can I do

said Pigling Bland

wet and cold

and quite tired out

66



To market

Jiggetty-jig

clucked a broody

(wanting to set on

her eggs)


Trap trap trap

67



In the meantime

he and the hens

fell asleep


they were

all awakened

Pigling Bland

much alarmed

determined


68



The owner


came with a lantern

and a hamper

(basket with a lid)

to catch six fowls


69



He grabbed

the white hen

roosting next

to the cock

70



then

his eye fell upon

Pigling Bland

squeezed up

in a corner

He made

71



and dropped him

into the hamper



of the neck

(skin on the back

of the neck)

72



The hamper

containing

six fowls

and a young pig

was no light

weight

Thenhe dropped in

five more


upon the top

of Pigling Bland

73



Pigling

although nearly

scratched to pieces


and the peppermints

inside his clothes

it was taken

down hill

unsteadily

with jerks

74



He looked up

blinking

and saw





the lid was opened

and Pigling

was lifted out

75




whatever

said Mr Piperson

turning Piglings

pockets inside out

76




into a corner





77



Pigling Bland


stool

and sat

on the edge of it


78



Mr Piperson

pulled off a boot

and threw it

againstthe wainscot

(wood paneling)


79



Pigling Bland

warmed

his hands

and eyed him

There was


ldquoShut uprdquo

said

Mr Piperson

80



Mr Piperson

pulled off

the other boot



81



Pigling Bland sat

on the very edge

of the coppy

stool

Be quiet

said

Mr Piperson

82



and made


Mr Piperson

fetched meal

from a chest

of the kitchen

84



but

he was

too hungry

to be troubled

by noises

85



Mr Piperson



and a third

-after glaring

at Pigling--

86



87

he put away

with much

scuffling

and locked up

Pigling Bland

ate his supper





consulted

an almanac

(reference book)

and felt

Piglings ribs

88



Besides

the hens

had seen this pig

It was too late

in the season

for curing bacon

and he grudged

his meal

89



ldquoYou may sleep

on the rugrdquo

said Mr Peter

Thomas Piperson

Pigling Bland

slept like a top


remains of a flitch

(side of bacon)

and then looked

undecidedly

at Pigling

90



He looked

how much

meal was left

in the chest

and seemed

dissatisfied--


more porridge

(oatmeal)

the weather

was warmer

91




reply

a neighbor

who was giving


a lift

whistled

from the gate

Youll likely

be moving on

again

said he

to Pigling Bland

92



or

Ill come back

and skin ye

said Mr Piperson

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

to shut the door

behind him


93



But

he distrusted

Peter Thomas

It crossed Piglings

mind


for a lift too

he might

still have been

in timefor market

94



After finishing


Pigling had

a look round

the cottage


95



Pigling

ate the peel

and washed up

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

and far away--

He sang


Tom



97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling


next day


He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

105



Pigling Bland

sat by the fire

eating his supper

106

ll



All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

My name

is Pig-wig

Make me more

porridge please

107



Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

108




he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

here

asked

Pigling Bland

110



What for

Bacon hams

replied Pig-wig

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

111



I shall

after supper

said Pig-wig

decidedly


away

exclaimed

the horrified

Pigling

112



Pigling Bland made

more porridge

and watched her

shyly

113



You cant go

in the darkrdquo

said

Pigling Bland


got up


as though she were

going to start

114



I knowwe can see

this little

white house

from the hills

across the river

Pig-wig

looked anxious

Do you knowyour way

by day-light

115



To market


Which way

are YOU going

Mr Pig

116



I might take you

to the bridge

if you have

no objectionrdquo

117

said Pigling

much confused

and sitting

on the edge

of his coppy stool



and she asked

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

and pretend

to sleep

119



Only the corners

replied Pig-wig


with much interest

by the firelight

I thought

you had

eaten them

said Pigling

waking suddenly

120




peppermints

into her pocket

Sing something

she demanded

I wish you wouldnt

he might smell them

through the ceiling

said

the alarmed Pigling

121



Then I will sing

replied Pig-wig


iddy tidditty

I am sorry

I have tooth- ache

said Pigling

much dismayed

122




he sat

with his eyes

half shut

and watched her

I have forgotten

some of the words

123



Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124




umph

and the little pigs

said

wee wee

A funny old

mother pig

lived in a stye

and three little

piggies had she

125



She sang

successfully

through three

or four verses

only

at every verse

her head nodded

a little lower

126



And her

twinkly eyes

closed up--

127

F h h



For somehow they

couldnt say

umph umph

umph

and

they wouldnt say

wee wee wee


grew peaky and lean

and lean

they might

very well be

128



For somehow

for the rest


to the chirping

of the crickets

and to the snores


132



She was excited

and

half- frightened

But its dark

How can we

find our way

Early


dark and daylight

Pigling tied up

his little bundle

and woke up

Pig-wig

133



The cock

has crowed

we must start


they might shout

to Mr Piperson

134



Come away

Pig-wig

we can see when

we get used to it

Come

I can hear

them clucking

Pig-wig sat down


to cry

135



He opened

the house door

quietly

and shut it

after them



being peaceable

also

he remembered

the hamper

136



There was

no garden

the neighborhood

of Mr Pipersons

was

all scratched up

by fowls

137



They slipped away

hand in hand


to the road

138



Butall the tune

that he could play

was

`Over the hills

and far away

Tom Tom

the pipers son

stole a pig

and away he ran

139



Why

do you want

Pigling

inquired Pig-wig

Come Pig-wig

The sun rose

The sunshine crept

down the slopes

into the peaceful

green valleys

where little white

cottages nestled


142



Thats

said Pig-wig

143



I dont want



and commenced

to dance

singing

-- presently

144




inquired Pig-wig

Pigling Bland

grunted

Pigling Bland


145



and followed


Pig-wig ate

Pig-wig

a man plowing

147




towards

the county boundary

Pig-wig

crossed over

148



Suddenly

Pigling stopped

he heard wheels

149



The reins flapped

on the horses back


a newspaper

Slowly jogging

up the road

below themcame

a tradesmans cart

150



Take that

peppermint

out of your mouth

Pig-wig

we may

have to run

151



And in sight

said poor Pigling

nearly crying

ldquoDont say

Leave it to me

152

h



The grocer




shied and snorted

He began to walk

frightfully lame


153



He pulled the cart

crossways

and held down

his whip

154



Hallo



at him vacantly

Are you deaf

155



Are you going

to market

Pigling

nodded slowly

I thought

as much

It was yesterday

156

Pigling stared



which had

picked up a stone

157



ldquoPapers

The grocer


158



The grocer

read them

but still seemed

dissatisfied

Pigling fumbled

in all his pockets

and handed up

the papers

159



Pig-wig opened

her mouth

and shut it again

Pigling coughed

asthmatically

This here pig

Alexander

160



Lost stolen

or strayed

10S reward

he looked

suspiciously

at Pig-wig

The grocer ran

his finger down


of his newspaper

161




and speak to him

said the grocer

gathering up

the reins

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

162



but surely

such a VERY

lame pig

could never run

He knew that pigs

are slippery

163



Not yet

Pig-wig

he will look back

164



Then he

looked over

at his

horses heels

The grocer did so

he saw

the two pigs

stock-still

in the middle

of the road

165



after he got

to the plowman

it was lame also


to knock out

166

Now

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

162



but surely

such a VERY

lame pig

could never run

He knew that pigs

are slippery

163



Not yet

Pig-wig

he will look back

Then he

looked over

(paying attention)

with appropriate

Then they started

He danced about

But I wish

to preserve them

said Pigling Bland

doubtfully

39



he dropped the pin

and tried


and the papers

got mixed up


with the pin

that had fastened

his pig paper

and when

Pigling slapped him

singing-

Tom Tom

`Over the hills

But

all the tune

that he could play

42



Whats that

young Sirs

Stole a pig

Where are

your licenses

said the policeman

43



They had nearly

run against him

round a corner

44



Pigling Bland

pulled outhis paper


handed over

something

scrumply--

45



Alexanders nose

lengthened visibly

he had lost it

I had one

indeed I had

Mr Policeman


sweeties


Whats this

this aint

46



Its not likely

they let you start

without


You may walkwith me

47



I see no reason

young Sir

your paper

is all right

Can I come back

too

inquired

Pigling Bland

48



But


with the police

Pigling Bland

did not like

going on alone

and it was

beginning

to rain

49



To conclude

the adventures

of Alexander--

he gave

his brother

a peppermint

and watched him

out of sight

50




to the house

about tea time

followed

by a damp

subdued little pig

51



he did fairly well

when he had

settled down

I disposed

of Alexander

in the

neighborhood

52



Over the Hills

4 miles

To Pettitoes Farm

3 miles

Pigling Bland




To Market-town

5 miles

53




how much time

had been wasted

by the frivolity

(silliness)

of Alexander

Pigling Bland

was shocked




54



He glanced

wistfully

(thoughtfully

longingly)

along the road

towards the hills

and then set off

55





all by himself

in a crowded

market

walking obediently

the other way

buttoning up

his coat

against the rain

56



to be stared at

pushed

and hired

by some big

strange farmer

was very

disagreeable--

57



I wish I could have

a little garden

and grow potatoes

said

Pigling Bland

58



he put

his other hand

in his other pocket


Alexanders

He put

his cold hand

in his pocket

and felt his paper

59



He took

a wrong turn

mdashseveral

wrong turns

and

was quite lost

Pigling squealed

then ran back

frantically

hoping

to overtake


60



It grew dark

the wind whistled

the trees

creaked and groaned

61




and cried

Wee wee wee

I cant find my way

home

62



the moon shone

through

the clouds

and Pigling Bland

saw a country

that was new to him

After

an hours wandering

he got out

of the wood

63



and beyond

--in misty distance

mdashlay the hills

The road crossed

a moor

below was

a wide valley

with a river


64




made his wayto it

and crept inside --

65



Bacon and eggs

bacon and eggs

clucked a hen

on a perch

I am afraid

it IS a hen house

but what can I do

said Pigling Bland

wet and cold

and quite tired out

66



To market

to market

Jiggetty-jig

clucked a broody

(wanting to set on

her eggs)


Trap trap trap

cackle

cackle

cackle

scolded


67



In the meantime

he and the hens

fell asleep


they were

all awakened

Pigling Bland

much alarmed

determined


68



The owner


came with a lantern

and a hamper

(basket with a lid)

to catch six fowls


69



He grabbed

the white hen

roosting next

to the cock

70



then

his eye fell upon

Pigling Bland

squeezed up

in a corner

He made


--

71



and dropped him

into the hamper



of the neck

(skin on the back

of the neck)

72



The hamper

containing

six fowls

and a young pig

was no light

weight

Thenhe dropped in

five more


upon the top

of Pigling Bland

73



Pigling

although nearly

scratched to pieces


and the peppermints

inside his clothes

it was taken

down hill

unsteadily

with jerks

74



He looked up

blinking

and saw





the lid was opened

and Pigling

was lifted out

said Mr Piperson

turning Piglings

pockets inside out

into a corner

and sat

on the edge of it


78



Mr Piperson

pulled off a boot

and threw it

againstthe wainscot

Pigling Bland

warmed

his hands

and eyed him

There was

Mr Piperson

Mr Piperson

Pigling Bland sat

Be quiet

Mr Piperson

82



and made


Mr Piperson

from a chest

83





of the kitchen

was taking

a suppressed

(pushed down)


84



but

he was

too hungry

to be troubled

by noises

85



Mr Piperson



and a third

-after glaring

at Pigling--

86



87

he put away

with much

scuffling

and locked up

Pigling Bland

ate his supper





consulted

an almanac

(reference book)

and felt

Piglings ribs

88



Besides

the hens

had seen this pig

It was too late

in the season

for curing bacon

and he grudged

his meal

89



ldquoYou may sleep

on the rugrdquo

said Mr Peter

Thomas Piperson

Pigling Bland

slept like a top


remains of a flitch

(side of bacon)

and then looked

undecidedly

at Pigling

90



He looked

how much

meal was left

in the chest

and seemed

dissatisfied--


more porridge

(oatmeal)

the weather

was warmer

91




reply

a neighbor

who was giving


a lift

whistled

from the gate

Youll likely

be moving on

again

said he

to Pigling Bland

92



or

Ill come back

and skin ye

said Mr Piperson

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

to shut the door

behind him


93



But

he distrusted

Peter Thomas

It crossed Piglings

mind


for a lift too

he might

still have been

in timefor market

94



After finishing


Pigling had

a look round

the cottage


95



Pigling

ate the peel

and washed up

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

and far away--

He sang


Tom



97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Can I come back

inquired

Pigling Bland

48



But


with the police

Pigling Bland

did not like

going on alone

and it was

beginning

to rain

49



To conclude

the adventures

of Alexander--

he gave

his brother

a peppermint

and watched him

out of sight

50




to the house

about tea time

followed

by a damp

subdued little pig

Over the Hills

To Market-town

53




how much time

had been wasted

by the frivolity

(silliness)

of Alexander

Pigling Bland

was shocked




54



He glanced

wistfully

(thoughtfully

longingly)

along the road

towards the hills

and then set off

55





all by himself

in a crowded

market

walking obediently

the other way

buttoning up

his coat

against the rain

56



to be stared at

pushed

and hired

by some big

strange farmer

was very

disagreeable--

57



I wish I could have

a little garden

and grow potatoes

said

Pigling Bland

58



he put

his other hand

in his other pocket


Alexanders

He put

his cold hand

in his pocket

and felt his paper

59



He took

a wrong turn

mdashseveral

wrong turns

and

was quite lost

Pigling squealed

then ran back

frantically

hoping

to overtake


60



It grew dark

the wind whistled

the trees

creaked and groaned

61




and cried

Wee wee wee

I cant find my way

home

62



the moon shone

through

the clouds

and Pigling Bland

saw a country

that was new to him

After

an hours wandering

he got out

of the wood

63



and beyond

--in misty distance

mdashlay the hills

The road crossed

a moor

below was

a wide valley

with a river


64




made his wayto it

and crept inside --

65



Bacon and eggs

bacon and eggs

clucked a hen

on a perch

I am afraid

it IS a hen house

but what can I do

said Pigling Bland

wet and cold

and quite tired out

66



To market

to market

Jiggetty-jig

clucked a broody

(wanting to set on

her eggs)


Trap trap trap

cackle

cackle

cackle

scolded


67



In the meantime

he and the hens

fell asleep


they were

all awakened

Pigling Bland

much alarmed

determined


68



The owner


came with a lantern

and a hamper

(basket with a lid)

to catch six fowls


69



He grabbed

the white hen

roosting next

to the cock

70



then

his eye fell upon

Pigling Bland

squeezed up

in a corner

He made


--

71



and dropped him

into the hamper



of the neck

(skin on the back

of the neck)

72



The hamper

containing

six fowls

and a young pig

was no light

weight

Thenhe dropped in

five more


upon the top

of Pigling Bland

73



Pigling

although nearly

scratched to pieces


and the peppermints

inside his clothes

it was taken

down hill

unsteadily

with jerks

74



He looked up

blinking

and saw





the lid was opened

and Pigling

was lifted out

75




whatever

said Mr Piperson

turning Piglings

pockets inside out

76




into a corner





77



Pigling Bland


stool

and sat

on the edge of it


78



Mr Piperson

pulled off a boot

and threw it

againstthe wainscot

(wood paneling)


79



Pigling Bland

warmed

his hands

and eyed him

There was


ldquoShut uprdquo

said

Mr Piperson

80



Mr Piperson

pulled off

the other boot



81



Pigling Bland sat

on the very edge

of the coppy

(cut-off short)

stool

Be quiet

will ye

said

Mr Piperson

82



and made


Mr Piperson

fetched meal

from a chest

83





of the kitchen

was taking

a suppressed

(pushed down)


84



but

he was

too hungry

to be troubled

by noises

85



Mr Piperson



and a third

-after glaring

at Pigling--

86



87

he put away

with much

scuffling

and locked up

Pigling Bland

ate his supper





consulted

an almanac

(reference book)

and felt

Piglings ribs

88



Besides

the hens

had seen this pig

It was too late

in the season

for curing bacon

and he grudged

his meal

89



ldquoYou may sleep

on the rugrdquo

said Mr Peter

Thomas Piperson

Pigling Bland

slept like a top


remains of a flitch

(side of bacon)

and then looked

undecidedly

at Pigling

90



He looked

how much

meal was left

in the chest

and seemed

dissatisfied--


more porridge

(oatmeal)

the weather

was warmer

91




reply

a neighbor

who was giving


a lift

whistled

from the gate

Youll likely

be moving on

again

said he

to Pigling Bland

92



or

Ill come back

and skin ye

said Mr Piperson

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

to shut the door

behind him


93



But

he distrusted

Peter Thomas

It crossed Piglings

mind


for a lift too

he might

still have been

in timefor market

94



After finishing


Pigling had

a look round

the cottage


95



Pigling

ate the peel

and washed up

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

and far away--

He sang


Tom



97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling


next day


He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

105



Pigling Bland

sat by the fire

eating his supper

106

ll



All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

My name

is Pig-wig

Make me more

porridge please

107



Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

108




he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

here

asked

Pigling Bland

110



What for

Bacon hams

replied Pig-wig

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

111



I shall

after supper

said Pig-wig

decidedly


away

exclaimed

the horrified

Pigling

112



Pigling Bland made

more porridge

and watched her

shyly

113



You cant go

in the darkrdquo

said

Pigling Bland


got up


as though she were

going to start

114



I knowwe can see

this little

white house

from the hills

across the river

Pig-wig

looked anxious

Do you knowyour way

by day-light

115



To market


Which way

are YOU going

Mr Pig

116



I might take you

to the bridge

if you have

no objectionrdquo

117

said Pigling

much confused

and sitting

on the edge

of his coppy stool



and she asked

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

and pretend

to sleep

119



Only the corners

replied Pig-wig


with much interest

by the firelight

I thought

you had

eaten them

said Pigling

waking suddenly

120




peppermints

into her pocket

Sing something

she demanded

I wish you wouldnt

he might smell them

through the ceiling

said

the alarmed Pigling

121



Then I will sing

replied Pig-wig


iddy tidditty

I am sorry

I have tooth- ache

said Pigling

much dismayed

122




he sat

with his eyes

half shut

and watched her

I have forgotten

some of the words

123



Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124




umph

and the little pigs

said

wee wee

A funny old

mother pig

lived in a stye

and three little

piggies had she

125



She sang

successfully

through three

or four verses

only

at every verse

her head nodded

a little lower

126



And her

twinkly eyes

closed up--

127

F h h



For somehow they

couldnt say

umph umph

umph

and

they wouldnt say

and lean

for the rest


to the chirping

of the crickets

and to the snores


132



She was excited

and

half- frightened

But its dark

How can we

Early


dark and daylight

Pigling tied up

his little bundle

and woke up

Pig-wig

133



The cock

has crowed

we must start


they might shout

to Mr Piperson

134



Come away

Pig-wig

we can see when

we get used to it

Come

I can hear

them clucking

Pig-wig sat down


to cry

135



He opened

the house door

quietly

and shut it

after them



being peaceable

also

he remembered

the hamper

136



There was

no garden

the neighborhood

of Mr Pipersons

was

all scratched up

by fowls

137



They slipped away

hand in hand


to the road

138



Butall the tune

that he could play

was

`Over the hills

and far away

Tom Tom

the pipers son

Why

to dance

Suddenly

Pigling stopped

The reins flapped

on the horses back


a newspaper

Slowly jogging

up the road

below themcame

a tradesmans cart

150



Take that

Pig-wig

said poor Pigling

nearly crying

The grocer




shied and snorted

He began to walk

frightfully lame


153



He pulled the cart

crossways

and held down

his whip

154



Hallo



at him vacantly

Are you deaf

155



Are you going

Pigling

nodded slowly

I thought

as much

158



The grocer

read them

but still seemed

dissatisfied

Pigling fumbled

in all his pockets

and handed up

the papers

Pig-wig opened

her mouth

and shut it again

Pigling coughed

asthmatically

This here pig

Lost stolen

suspiciously

at Pig-wig

The grocer ran

his finger down

said the grocer

gathering up

the reins

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

162

He knew that pigs

She was excited

Pigling tied up

The cock

134



Come away

Pig-wig

we get used to it

Come

them clucking

Pig-wig sat down


to cry

135



He opened

the house door

quietly

and shut it

after them



being peaceable

also

he remembered

the hamper

136



There was

no garden

the neighborhood

of Mr Pipersons

was

all scratched up

by fowls

137



They slipped away

hand in hand


to the road

138



Butall the tune

that he could play

was

`Over the hills

cottages nestled

to dance

Suddenly

Pigling stopped

he heard wheels

149



The reins flapped

on the horses back


a newspaper

Slowly jogging

up the road

below themcame

a tradesmans cart

150



Take that

peppermint

out of your mouth

Pig-wig

have to run

151



And in sight

said poor Pigling

nearly crying

ldquoDont say

Leave it to me

152

The grocer




shied and snorted

He began to walk

frightfully lame


153



He pulled the cart

crossways

and held down

his whip

154



Hallo



at him vacantly

Are you deaf

155



Are you going

to market

Pigling

nodded slowly

I thought

as much

It was yesterday

Pigling stared



which had

picked up a stone

157



ldquoPapers

The grocer


158



The grocer

read them

but still seemed

dissatisfied

Pigling fumbled

in all his pockets

and handed up

the papers

159



Pig-wig opened

her mouth

and shut it again

Pigling coughed

asthmatically

This here pig

is a young lady

is her name

Alexander

160



Lost stolen

or strayed

10S reward

he looked

suspiciously

at Pig-wig

The grocer ran

his finger down


of his newspaper

161




and speak to him

said the grocer

gathering up

the reins

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

162



but surely

such a VERY

lame pig

could never run

He knew that pigs

are slippery

163



Not yet

Pig-wig

he will look back

164



Then he

looked over

at his

horses heels

The grocer did so

he saw

the two pigs

stock-still

in the middle

of the road

165



after he got

to the plowman

it was lame also


to knock out

166

Now

Pigling Bland

Never

They came

We brushed

And the other two

little boy pigs

Pigling Bland

and Alexander

went to market

18



Aunt Pettitoes

wiped her eyes

with a large pocket

handkerchief

then she wiped

Pigling Blands

noseand shed tears

19



Aunt Pettitoes

sighed

and grunted

and addressed

those little pigs

as follows--

then she wiped

Alexanders nose

and shed tears

then she passed

the handkerchief

to Spot

Pigling Bland

who was a sedate

looked solemnly

at his mother

to the othermdash

Now son

25



Wee wee wee

Pigling Bland

interrupted

Alexander again

28



You put me out

Aunt Pettitoes--



29



And remember

said I impressively

if you once cross

the county boundary


30




(paying attention)


permitting two pigs

to go to market

in Lancashire

31



Pigling Bland

listened gravely

Alexander was

hopelessly volatile

(volare to fly)

Attend Alexander

32



Aunt Pettitoes



peppermints

with appropriate

moral sentiments

in screws of paper

I pinnedthe papers

for safety

33



Then they started

Pigling Bland

and Alexander



34



He danced about


singing ndash

This pig went

to the market

Alexander

made the road

half as long again

by skipping

from side to side

35



This pig had

Pigling

Pigling Bland

sat down

and untied

their bundles

37



Give me

Alexandergobbled up

his dinner

in no time

38



Alexander


But I wish

to preserve them

for emergencies

said Pigling Bland

doubtfully

39



he dropped the pin

and tried


and the papers

got mixed up


with the pin

that had fastened

his pig paper

and when

Pigling slapped him

singing-

Tom Tom

the pipers son

`Over the hills

But

all the tune

that he could play

42



Whats that

young Sirs

Stole a pig

Where are

said the policeman

43



They had nearly

run against him

round a corner

44



Pigling Bland

pulled outhis paper


handed over

something

scrumply--

45



Alexanders nose

lengthened visibly

he had lost it

I had one

indeed I had

Mr Policeman


sweeties


Whats this

46



Its not likely

You may walkwith me

47



I see no reason

young Sir

Can I come back

too

inquired

Pigling Bland

48



But


with the police

Pigling Bland

did not like

going on alone

and it was

beginning

to rain

49



To conclude

the adventures

of Alexander--

he gave

his brother

a peppermint

and watched him

out of sight

50




to the house

about tea time

followed

by a damp

subdued little pig

51



he did fairly well

when he had

settled down

I disposed

of Alexander

in the

neighborhood

52



Over the Hills

4 miles

To Pettitoes Farm

3 miles

Pigling Bland




To Market-town

5 miles

53




how much time

had been wasted

by the frivolity

(silliness)

of Alexander

Pigling Bland

was shocked




54



He glanced

wistfully

(thoughtfully

longingly)

along the road

towards the hills

and then set off

55





all by himself

in a crowded

market

walking obediently

the other way

buttoning up

his coat

against the rain

56



to be stared at

pushed

and hired

by some big

strange farmer

was very

disagreeable--

57



I wish I could have

a little garden

and grow potatoes

said

Pigling Bland

58



he put

his other hand

in his other pocket


Alexanders

He put

his cold hand

in his pocket

and felt his paper

59



He took

a wrong turn

mdashseveral

wrong turns

and

was quite lost

Pigling squealed

then ran back

frantically

hoping

to overtake


60



It grew dark

the wind whistled

the trees

creaked and groaned

61




and cried

Wee wee wee

I cant find my way

home

62



the moon shone

through

the clouds

and Pigling Bland

saw a country

that was new to him

After

an hours wandering

he got out

of the wood

63



and beyond

--in misty distance

mdashlay the hills

The road crossed

a moor

below was

a wide valley

with a river


64




made his wayto it

and crept inside --

65



Bacon and eggs

bacon and eggs

clucked a hen

on a perch

I am afraid

it IS a hen house

but what can I do

said Pigling Bland

wet and cold

and quite tired out

66



To market

to market

Jiggetty-jig

clucked a broody

(wanting to set on

her eggs)


Trap trap trap

cackle

67



In the meantime

Pig-wig sat down

135



He opened

the house door

quietly

and shut it

after them



being peaceable

also

he remembered

the hamper

The reins flapped

on the horses back


a newspaper

Slowly jogging

up the road

below themcame

a tradesmans cart

150

The grocer




shied and snorted

He began to walk

frightfully lame


153



He pulled the cart

crossways

and held down

his whip

154



Hallo



at him vacantly

nodded slowly

The grocer

read them

but still seemed

dissatisfied

Pigling fumbled

in all his pockets

and handed up

the papers

and shut it again

Pigling coughed

asthmatically

This here pig

suspiciously

at Pig-wig

The grocer ran

his finger down


of his newspaper

and speak to him

said the grocer

gathering up

the reins

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

162



but surely

such a VERY

lame pig

could never run

He knew that pigs

are slippery

163



Not yet

Pig-wig

he will look back

164



Then he

looked over

at his

horses heels

The grocer did so

he saw

the two pigs

stock-still

in the middle

of the road

after he got

to the plowman

it was lame also


to knock out

They had nearly

young Sir

Can I come back

inquired

Pigling Bland

48



But


with the police

Pigling Bland

did not like

going on alone

and it was

beginning

to rain

49



To conclude

the adventures

of Alexander--

he gave

his brother

a peppermint

and watched him

out of sight

50




to the house

about tea time

followed

by a damp

subdued little pig

51



he did fairly well

when he had

settled down

I disposed

of Alexander

in the

neighborhood

52



Over the Hills

4 miles

To Pettitoes Farm

3 miles

Pigling Bland




To Market-town

5 miles

53




how much time

had been wasted

by the frivolity

(silliness)

of Alexander

Pigling Bland

was shocked




54



He glanced

wistfully

(thoughtfully

longingly)

along the road

towards the hills

and then set off

55





all by himself

in a crowded

market

walking obediently

the other way

buttoning up

his coat

against the rain

56



to be stared at

pushed

and hired

by some big

strange farmer

was very

disagreeable--

57



I wish I could have

a little garden

and grow potatoes

said

Pigling Bland

58



he put

his other hand

in his other pocket


Alexanders

He put

his cold hand

in his pocket

and felt his paper

59



He took

a wrong turn

mdashseveral

wrong turns

and

was quite lost

Pigling squealed

then ran back

frantically

hoping

to overtake


60



It grew dark

the wind whistled

the trees

creaked and groaned

61




and cried

Wee wee wee

I cant find my way

home

62



the moon shone

through

the clouds

and Pigling Bland

saw a country

that was new to him

After

an hours wandering

he got out

of the wood

63



and beyond

--in misty distance

mdashlay the hills

The road crossed

a moor

below was

a wide valley

with a river


64




made his wayto it

and crept inside --

65



Bacon and eggs

bacon and eggs

clucked a hen

on a perch

I am afraid

it IS a hen house

but what can I do

said Pigling Bland

wet and cold

and quite tired out

66



To market

to market

Jiggetty-jig

clucked a broody

(wanting to set on

her eggs)


Trap trap trap

cackle

cackle

cackle

scolded


67



In the meantime

he and the hens

fell asleep


they were

all awakened

Pigling Bland

much alarmed

determined


68



The owner


came with a lantern

and a hamper

(basket with a lid)

to catch six fowls


69



He grabbed

the white hen

roosting next

to the cock

70



then

his eye fell upon

Pigling Bland

squeezed up

in a corner

He made


--

71



and dropped him

into the hamper



of the neck

(skin on the back

of the neck)

72



The hamper

containing

six fowls

and a young pig

was no light

weight

Thenhe dropped in

five more


upon the top

of Pigling Bland

73



Pigling

although nearly

scratched to pieces


and the peppermints

inside his clothes

it was taken

down hill

unsteadily

with jerks

74



He looked up

blinking

and saw





the lid was opened

and Pigling

was lifted out

75




whatever

said Mr Piperson

turning Piglings

pockets inside out

76




into a corner





77



Pigling Bland


stool

and sat

on the edge of it


78



Mr Piperson

pulled off a boot

and threw it

againstthe wainscot

(wood paneling)


79



Pigling Bland

warmed

his hands

and eyed him

There was


ldquoShut uprdquo

said

Mr Piperson

80



Mr Piperson

pulled off

the other boot



81



Pigling Bland sat

on the very edge

of the coppy

(cut-off short)

stool

Be quiet

will ye

said

Mr Piperson

82



and made


Mr Piperson

fetched meal

from a chest

83





of the kitchen

was taking

a suppressed

(pushed down)


84



but

he was

too hungry

to be troubled

by noises

85



Mr Piperson



and a third

-after glaring

at Pigling--

86



87

he put away

with much

scuffling

and locked up

Pigling Bland

ate his supper





consulted

an almanac

(reference book)

and felt

Piglings ribs

88



Besides

the hens

had seen this pig

It was too late

in the season

for curing bacon

and he grudged

his meal

89



ldquoYou may sleep

on the rugrdquo

said Mr Peter

Thomas Piperson

Pigling Bland

slept like a top


remains of a flitch

(side of bacon)

and then looked

undecidedly

at Pigling

90



He looked

how much

meal was left

in the chest

and seemed

dissatisfied--


more porridge

(oatmeal)

the weather

was warmer

91




reply

a neighbor

who was giving


a lift

whistled

from the gate

Youll likely

be moving on

again

said he

to Pigling Bland

92



or

Ill come back

and skin ye

said Mr Piperson

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

to shut the door

behind him


93



But

he distrusted

Peter Thomas

It crossed Piglings

mind


for a lift too

he might

still have been

in timefor market

94



After finishing


Pigling had

a look round

the cottage


95



Pigling

ate the peel

and washed up

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

and far away--

He sang


Tom



97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling


next day


He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

105



Pigling Bland

sat by the fire

eating his supper

106

ll



All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

My name

is Pig-wig

Make me more

porridge please

107



Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

108




he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

here

asked

Pigling Bland

110



What for

Bacon hams

replied Pig-wig

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

111



I shall

after supper

said Pig-wig

decidedly


away

exclaimed

the horrified

Pigling

112



Pigling Bland made

more porridge

and watched her

shyly

113



You cant go

in the darkrdquo

said

Pigling Bland


got up


as though she were

going to start

114



I knowwe can see

this little

white house

from the hills

across the river

Pig-wig

looked anxious

Do you knowyour way

by day-light

115



To market


Which way

are YOU going

Mr Pig

116



I might take you

to the bridge

if you have

no objectionrdquo

117

said Pigling

much confused

and sitting

on the edge

of his coppy stool



and she asked

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

and pretend

to sleep

119



Only the corners

replied Pig-wig


with much interest

by the firelight

I thought

you had

eaten them

said Pigling

waking suddenly

120




peppermints

into her pocket

Sing something

she demanded

I wish you wouldnt

he might smell them

through the ceiling

said

the alarmed Pigling

121



Then I will sing

replied Pig-wig


iddy tidditty

I am sorry

I have tooth- ache

said Pigling

much dismayed

122




he sat

with his eyes

half shut

and watched her

I have forgotten

some of the words

123



Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124




umph

and the little pigs

said

wee wee

A funny old

mother pig

lived in a stye

and three little

piggies had she

125



She sang

successfully

through three

or four verses

only

at every verse

her head nodded

a little lower

126



And her

twinkly eyes

closed up--

127

F h h



For somehow they

couldnt say

to the chirping

of the crickets

132



She was excited

and

half- frightened

But its dark

How can we

Early

Pigling tied up

his little bundle

and woke up

Pig-wig

133



The cock

to Mr Piperson

134



Come away

Pig-wig

how much time

had been wasted

by the frivolity

(silliness)

of Alexander

Pigling Bland

was shocked




54



He glanced

wistfully

(thoughtfully

longingly)

along the road

towards the hills

and then set off

55





all by himself

in a crowded

market

walking obediently

the other way

buttoning up

his coat

against the rain

to be stared at

pushed

and hired

by some big

strange farmer

disagreeable--

I wish I could have

Pigling Bland

he put

in his other pocket


Alexanders

He put

his cold hand

in his pocket

and felt his paper

He took

a wrong turn

wrong turns

and

was quite lost

Pigling squealed

then ran back

frantically

hoping

to overtake


60



It grew dark

the wind whistled

the trees

creaked and groaned

61




and cried

Wee wee wee

I cant find my way

home

62



the moon shone

through

the clouds

and Pigling Bland

saw a country

that was new to him

After

an hours wandering

he got out

of the wood

63



and beyond

--in misty distance

mdashlay the hills

The road crossed

a moor

below was

a wide valley

with a river

made his wayto it

and crept inside --

Bacon and eggs

In the meantime

fell asleep


they were

all awakened

Pigling Bland

much alarmed

determined


68



The owner


came with a lantern

and a hamper

(basket with a lid)

to catch six fowls


69



He grabbed

the white hen

roosting next

to the cock

70



then

his eye fell upon

Pigling Bland

squeezed up

in a corner

He made

and dropped him

into the hamper

The hamper

Thenhe dropped in

Pigling

although nearly

scratched to pieces

down hill

unsteadily

with jerks

He looked up

Mr Piperson

pulled off a boot

Pigling Bland

warmed

and eyed him

There was

Mr Piperson

scuffling

an almanac

(reference book)

and felt

Piglings ribs

88



Besides

the hens

had seen this pig

It was too late

in the season

for curing bacon

and he grudged

his meal

89



ldquoYou may sleep

on the rugrdquo

said Mr Peter

Thomas Piperson

Pigling Bland

slept like a top


remains of a flitch

(side of bacon)

and then looked

undecidedly

at Pigling

90



He looked

how much

meal was left

in the chest

and seemed

dissatisfied--


more porridge

(oatmeal)

the weather

was warmer

91




reply

a neighbor

who was giving


a lift

whistled

from the gate

Youll likely

said he

to Pigling Bland

92



or

Ill come back

said Mr Piperson

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

to shut the door

behind him


93



But

he distrusted

Peter Thomas

It crossed Piglings

mind


for a lift too

he might

still have been

in timefor market

94



After finishing


Pigling had

a look round

the cottage


95



Pigling

ate the peel

and washed up

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

and far away--

He sang


Tom



97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling


next day


He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

105



Pigling Bland

sat by the fire

eating his supper

106

All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

My name

Make me more

porridge please

107



Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

108




he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

here

asked

Pigling Bland

110



What for

Bacon hams

replied Pig-wig

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

111



I shall

said Pig-wig

decidedly


away

exclaimed

the horrified

Pigling

112



Pigling Bland made

more porridge

and watched her

shyly

113



You cant go

said

Pigling Bland


got up


as though she were

going to start

114



I knowwe can see

this little

white house

from the hills

across the river

Pig-wig

looked anxious

Do you knowyour way

by day-light

115



To market


Which way

are YOU going

Mr Pig

116



I might take you

to the bridge

if you have

no objectionrdquo

117

said Pigling

much confused

and sitting

on the edge

of his coppy stool



and she asked

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

and pretend

to sleep

119



Only the corners

replied Pig-wig


with much interest

by the firelight

I thought

you had

eaten them

said Pigling

waking suddenly

120




peppermints

into her pocket

Sing something

she demanded

I wish you wouldnt

he might smell them

through the ceiling

said

the alarmed Pigling

121



Then I will sing

replied Pig-wig


iddy tidditty

I am sorry

I have tooth- ache

said Pigling

much dismayed

122




he sat

with his eyes

half shut

and watched her

I have forgotten

some of the words

123



Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124




umph

and the little pigs

said

wee wee

A funny old

mother pig

lived in a stye

and three little

piggies had she

125



She sang

successfully

through three

or four verses

only

at every verse

her head nodded

a little lower

126



And her

twinkly eyes

closed up--

127

F h h



For somehow they

couldnt say

and

they wouldnt say

for the rest


to the chirping

of the crickets

and to the snores


132



She was excited

and

half- frightened

But its dark

How can we

Early


dark and daylight

Pigling tied up

his little bundle

and woke up

Pig-wig

133



The cock

has crowed

we must start


they might shout

to Mr Piperson

134



Come away

Pig-wig

we can see when

we get used to it

Come

I can hear

them clucking

Pig-wig sat down


to cry

135



He opened

the house door

quietly

and shut it

after them



being peaceable

also

he remembered

the hamper

136



There was

no garden

the neighborhood

of Mr Pipersons

was

all scratched up

by fowls

137



They slipped away

hand in hand


to the road

138



Butall the tune

that he could play

was

`Over the hills

and far away

Tom Tom

the pipers son

stole a pig

and away he ran

Why

The sunshine crept

down the slopes

into the peaceful

green valleys

where little white

cottages nestled

143

and commenced

to dance

singing

Suddenly

Pigling stopped

he heard wheels

149



The reins flapped

on the horses back


a newspaper

Slowly jogging

up the road

below themcame

a tradesmans cart

150



Take that

peppermint

out of your mouth

Pig-wig

we may

have to run

151



And in sight

said poor Pigling

nearly crying

ldquoDont say

Leave it to me

152

h



The grocer




shied and snorted

He began to walk

frightfully lame


153



He pulled the cart

crossways

and held down

his whip

154



Hallo



at him vacantly

Are you deaf

155



Are you going

to market

Pigling

nodded slowly

I thought

as much

It was yesterday

Pigling stared



which had

picked up a stone

157



ldquoPapers

The grocer


158



The grocer

read them

but still seemed

dissatisfied

Pigling fumbled

in all his pockets

and handed up

the papers

159



Pig-wig opened

her mouth

and shut it again

Pigling coughed

asthmatically

This here pig

Alexander

160



Lost stolen

or strayed

10S reward

he looked

suspiciously

at Pig-wig

The grocer ran

his finger down


of his newspaper

161




and speak to him

said the grocer

gathering up

the reins

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

162



but surely

such a VERY

lame pig

could never run

He knew that pigs

are slippery

163



Not yet

Pig-wig

he will look back

164



Then he

looked over

at his

horses heels

The grocer did so

he saw

the two pigs

stock-still

in the middle

of the road

165



after he got

to the plowman

it was lame also


to knock out

166

Now

Aunt Pettitoes

Aunt Pettitoes

sighed

Not yet

Pig-wig

They had nearly

inquired

Pigling Bland

48



But


with the police

Pigling Bland

did not like

going on alone

and it was

beginning

to rain

49



To conclude

the adventures

of Alexander--

he gave

his brother

a peppermint

and watched him

out of sight

50




to the house

about tea time

followed

by a damp

subdued little pig

51



he did fairly well

when he had

settled down

I disposed

neighborhood

Pigling Bland




To Market-town

5 miles

53




how much time

had been wasted

by the frivolity

(silliness)

of Alexander

Pigling Bland

was shocked




54



He glanced

wistfully

(thoughtfully

longingly)

along the road

towards the hills

and then set off

55





all by himself

in a crowded

market

walking obediently

the other way

buttoning up

his coat

against the rain

56



to be stared at

pushed

and hired

by some big

strange farmer

was very

disagreeable--

57



I wish I could have

a little garden

and grow potatoes

said

Pigling Bland

58



he put

his other hand

in his other pocket


Alexanders

He put

his cold hand

in his pocket

and felt his paper

59



He took

a wrong turn

mdashseveral

wrong turns

and

was quite lost

Pigling squealed

then ran back

frantically

hoping

to overtake


60



It grew dark

the wind whistled

the trees

creaked and groaned

61




and cried

Wee wee wee

I cant find my way

home

62



the moon shone

through

the clouds

and Pigling Bland

saw a country

that was new to him

After

an hours wandering

he got out

of the wood

63



and beyond

--in misty distance

mdashlay the hills

The road crossed

a moor

below was

a wide valley

with a river


64




made his wayto it

and crept inside --

65



Bacon and eggs

bacon and eggs

clucked a hen

on a perch

I am afraid

it IS a hen house

but what can I do

said Pigling Bland

wet and cold

and quite tired out

66



To market

to market

Jiggetty-jig

clucked a broody

(wanting to set on

her eggs)


Trap trap trap

cackle

cackle

cackle

scolded


67



In the meantime

he and the hens

fell asleep


they were

all awakened

Pigling Bland

much alarmed

determined


68



The owner


came with a lantern

and a hamper

(basket with a lid)

to catch six fowls


69



He grabbed

the white hen

roosting next

to the cock

70



then

his eye fell upon

Pigling Bland

squeezed up

in a corner

He made


--

71



and dropped him

into the hamper



of the neck

(skin on the back

of the neck)

72



The hamper

containing

six fowls

and a young pig

was no light

Thenhe dropped in

five more


upon the top

of Pigling Bland

73



Pigling

although nearly

scratched to pieces


and the peppermints

inside his clothes

it was taken

down hill

unsteadily

with jerks

74



He looked up

blinking

and saw





the lid was opened

and Pigling

was lifted out

said Mr Piperson

turning Piglings

pockets inside out

76




into a corner

Pigling Bland


stool

and sat

on the edge of it


78



Mr Piperson

pulled off a boot

and threw it

againstthe wainscot

(wood paneling)


79



Pigling Bland

warmed

his hands

and eyed him

There was


ldquoShut uprdquo

said

Mr Piperson

80



Mr Piperson

pulled off

the other boot



81



Pigling Bland sat

on the very edge

of the coppy

(cut-off short)

stool

Be quiet

will ye

said

Mr Piperson

82



and made


Mr Piperson

fetched meal

from a chest

83





of the kitchen

was taking

a suppressed

(pushed down)


84



but

he was

too hungry

to be troubled

by noises

85



Mr Piperson



and a third

-after glaring

at Pigling--

86



87

he put away

with much

scuffling

and locked up

Pigling Bland

ate his supper





consulted

an almanac

(reference book)

and felt

Piglings ribs

88



Besides

the hens

had seen this pig

It was too late

in the season

for curing bacon

and he grudged

his meal

89



ldquoYou may sleep

on the rugrdquo

said Mr Peter

Thomas Piperson

Pigling Bland

slept like a top


remains of a flitch

(side of bacon)

and then looked

undecidedly

at Pigling

90



He looked

how much

meal was left

in the chest

and seemed

dissatisfied--


more porridge

(oatmeal)

the weather

was warmer

91




reply

a neighbor

who was giving


a lift

whistled

from the gate

Youll likely

be moving on

again

said he

to Pigling Bland

92



or

Ill come back

and skin ye

said Mr Piperson

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

to shut the door

behind him


93



But

he distrusted

Peter Thomas

It crossed Piglings

mind


for a lift too

he might

still have been

in timefor market

94



After finishing


Pigling had

a look round

the cottage


95



Pigling

ate the peel

and washed up

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

and far away--

He sang


Tom



97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling


next day


He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

105



Pigling Bland

sat by the fire

eating his supper

106

ll



All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

My name

is Pig-wig

Make me more

porridge please

107



Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

108




he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

here

asked

Pigling Bland

110



What for

Bacon hams

replied Pig-wig

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

111



I shall

after supper

said Pig-wig

decidedly


away

exclaimed

the horrified

Pigling

112



Pigling Bland made

more porridge

and watched her

shyly

113



You cant go

in the darkrdquo

said

Pigling Bland


got up


as though she were

going to start

114



I knowwe can see

this little

white house

from the hills

across the river

Pig-wig

looked anxious

Do you knowyour way

by day-light

115



To market


Which way

are YOU going

Mr Pig

116



I might take you

to the bridge

if you have

no objectionrdquo

117

said Pigling

much confused

and sitting

on the edge

of his coppy stool



and she asked

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

inquired

Pigling Bland

48



But


with the police

Pigling Bland

did not like

going on alone

and it was

beginning

to rain

49



To conclude

the adventures

of Alexander--

he gave

his brother

a peppermint

and watched him

out of sight

50




to the house

about tea time

followed

by a damp

subdued little pig

51



he did fairly well

when he had

I disposed

Pigling Bland




To Market-town

53




how much time

had been wasted

by the frivolity

(silliness)

of Alexander

Pigling Bland

was shocked




54



He glanced

wistfully

(thoughtfully

longingly)

along the road

towards the hills

and then set off

55





all by himself

in a crowded

market

walking obediently

the other way

buttoning up

his coat

against the rain

56



to be stared at

pushed

and hired

by some big

strange farmer

was very

disagreeable--

57



I wish I could have

a little garden

and grow potatoes

said

Pigling Bland

58



he put

his other hand

in his other pocket


Alexanders

He put

his cold hand

in his pocket

and felt his paper

59



He took

a wrong turn

mdashseveral

wrong turns

and

was quite lost

Pigling squealed

then ran back

frantically

hoping

to overtake


60



It grew dark

the wind whistled

the trees

creaked and groaned

61




and cried

Wee wee wee

I cant find my way

home

62



the moon shone

through

the clouds

and Pigling Bland

saw a country

that was new to him

After

an hours wandering

he got out

of the wood

63



and beyond

--in misty distance

mdashlay the hills

The road crossed

a moor

below was

a wide valley

with a river


64




made his wayto it

and crept inside --

65



Bacon and eggs

bacon and eggs

clucked a hen

on a perch

I am afraid

it IS a hen house

but what can I do

said Pigling Bland

wet and cold

and quite tired out

66



To market

Jiggetty-jig

clucked a broody

(wanting to set on

her eggs)


Trap trap trap

cackle

scolded


67



In the meantime

he and the hens

fell asleep


they were

all awakened

Pigling Bland

much alarmed

determined


68



The owner


came with a lantern

and a hamper

(basket with a lid)

to catch six fowls


69



He grabbed

the white hen

roosting next

to the cock

70



then

his eye fell upon

Pigling Bland

squeezed up

in a corner

He made

71



and dropped him

into the hamper



of the neck

(skin on the back

of the neck)

72



The hamper

containing

six fowls

and a young pig

was no light

weight

Thenhe dropped in

five more


upon the top

of Pigling Bland

73



Pigling

although nearly

scratched to pieces


and the peppermints

inside his clothes

it was taken

down hill

unsteadily

with jerks

74



He looked up

blinking

and saw





the lid was opened

and Pigling

was lifted out

said Mr Piperson

turning Piglings

pockets inside out

76




into a corner

Pigling Bland

and sat

on the edge of it


78



Mr Piperson

pulled off a boot

and threw it

againstthe wainscot

(wood paneling)


79



Pigling Bland

warmed

his hands

and eyed him

There was


ldquoShut uprdquo

said

Mr Piperson

80



Mr Piperson

pulled off

the other boot



81



Pigling Bland sat

on the very edge

Be quiet

said

Mr Piperson

82



and made


Mr Piperson

fetched meal

of the kitchen

84



but

he was

too hungry

to be troubled

85



Mr Piperson



and a third

-after glaring

at Pigling--

86



87

he put away

with much

scuffling

and locked up

Pigling Bland

ate his supper





consulted

an almanac

(reference book)

and felt

Piglings ribs

88



Besides

the hens

had seen this pig

It was too late

in the season

for curing bacon

and he grudged

his meal

89



ldquoYou may sleep

on the rugrdquo

said Mr Peter

Thomas Piperson

Pigling Bland

slept like a top


remains of a flitch

(side of bacon)

and then looked

undecidedly

at Pigling

90



He looked

how much

meal was left

in the chest

and seemed

dissatisfied--


more porridge

(oatmeal)

the weather

was warmer

91




reply

a neighbor

who was giving


a lift

whistled

from the gate

Youll likely

be moving on

again

said he

to Pigling Bland

92



or

Ill come back

and skin ye

said Mr Piperson

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

to shut the door

behind him


93



But

he distrusted

Peter Thomas

It crossed Piglings

mind


for a lift too

he might

still have been

in timefor market

94



After finishing


Pigling had

a look round

the cottage


95



Pigling

ate the peel

and washed up

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

and far away--

He sang


Tom



97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling


next day


He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

105



Pigling Bland

sat by the fire

eating his supper

106

ll



All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

My name

is Pig-wig

Make me more

porridge please

107



Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

108




he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

here

asked

Pigling Bland

110



What for

Bacon hams

replied Pig-wig

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

111



I shall

after supper

said Pig-wig

decidedly


away

exclaimed

the horrified

Pigling

112



Pigling Bland made

more porridge

and watched her

shyly

113



You cant go

in the darkrdquo

said

Pigling Bland


got up


as though she were

going to start

114



I knowwe can see

this little

white house

from the hills

across the river

Pig-wig

looked anxious

Do you knowyour way

by day-light

115



To market


Which way

are YOU going

Mr Pig

116



I might take you

to the bridge

if you have

no objectionrdquo

117

said Pigling

much confused

and sitting

on the edge

of his coppy stool



and she asked

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

and pretend

to sleep

119



Only the corners

replied Pig-wig


with much interest

by the firelight

I thought

you had

eaten them

said Pigling

waking suddenly

120




peppermints

into her pocket

Sing something

she demanded

I wish you wouldnt

he might smell them

through the ceiling

said

the alarmed Pigling

121



Then I will sing

replied Pig-wig


iddy tidditty

I am sorry

I have tooth- ache

said Pigling

much dismayed

122




he sat

with his eyes

half shut

and watched her

I have forgotten

some of the words

123



Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124




umph

and the little pigs

said

wee wee

A funny old

mother pig

lived in a stye

and three little

piggies had she

125



She sang

successfully

through three

or four verses

only

at every verse

her head nodded

a little lower

126



And her

twinkly eyes

closed up--

127

F h h



For somehow they

couldnt say

umph umph

umph

and

they wouldnt say

and lean

For somehow

for the rest


to the chirping

of the crickets

and to the snores


132



She was excited

and

half- frightened

But its dark

How can we

find our way

Early


dark and daylight

Pigling tied up

his little bundle

and woke up

Pig-wig

133



The cock

has crowed

we must start


they might shout

to Mr Piperson

134



Come away

Pig-wig

we can see when

we get used to it

Come

I can hear

them clucking

Pig-wig sat down


to cry

135



He opened

the house door

quietly

and shut it

after them



being peaceable

also

he remembered

the hamper

136



There was

no garden

the neighborhood

of Mr Pipersons

was

all scratched up

by fowls

137



They slipped away

hand in hand


to the road

138



Butall the tune

that he could play

was

`Over the hills

and far away

Tom Tom

the pipers son

stole a pig

and away he ran

Why

The sun rose

The sunshine crept

down the slopes

into the peaceful

green valleys

where little white

cottages nestled

143

and commenced

to dance

singing

-- presently

144




inquired Pig-wig

Pigling Bland

grunted

Pigling Bland

and followed


Pig-wig ate

Pig-wig

147




towards

Pig-wig

crossed over

148



Suddenly

Pigling stopped

he heard wheels

149



The reins flapped

on the horses back


a newspaper

Slowly jogging

up the road

below themcame

a tradesmans cart

150



Take that

peppermint

out of your mouth

Pig-wig

have to run

151



And in sight

said poor Pigling

nearly crying

ldquoDont say

Leave it to me

152

h



The grocer




shied and snorted

He began to walk

frightfully lame


153



He pulled the cart

crossways

and held down

his whip

154



Hallo



at him vacantly

Are you deaf

155



Are you going

to market

Pigling

nodded slowly

I thought

as much

It was yesterday

Pigling stared



which had

picked up a stone

157



ldquoPapers

The grocer


158



The grocer

read them

but still seemed

dissatisfied

Pigling fumbled

in all his pockets

and handed up

the papers

159



Pig-wig opened

her mouth

and shut it again

Pigling coughed

asthmatically

This here pig

Alexander

160



Lost stolen

or strayed

10S reward

he looked

suspiciously

at Pig-wig

The grocer ran

his finger down


of his newspaper

161




and speak to him

said the grocer

gathering up

the reins

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

162



but surely

such a VERY

lame pig

could never run

He knew that pigs

are slippery

163



Not yet

Pig-wig

he will look back

164



Then he

looked over

at his

horses heels

The grocer did so

he saw

the two pigs

stock-still

in the middle

of the road

165



after he got

to the plowman

it was lame also


to knock out

Pigling tied up

134



Come away

Pig-wig

Pig-wig sat down


to cry

He opened

They had nearly

Pigling Bland

Alexanders nose

he had lost it

inquired

Pigling Bland

48



But


with the police

Pigling Bland

did not like

going on alone

and it was

beginning

to rain

49



To conclude

the adventures

of Alexander--

he gave

his brother

a peppermint

and watched him

out of sight

50




to the house

about tea time

followed

by a damp

subdued little pig

51



he did fairly well

when he had

settled down

I disposed

To Pettitoes Farm

Pigling Bland




To Market-town

5 miles

53




how much time

had been wasted

by the frivolity

(silliness)

of Alexander

Pigling Bland

was shocked




54



He glanced

wistfully

(thoughtfully

longingly)

along the road

towards the hills

and then set off

55





all by himself

in a crowded

market

walking obediently

the other way

buttoning up

his coat

against the rain

56



to be stared at

pushed

and hired

by some big

strange farmer

was very

disagreeable--

57



I wish I could have

a little garden

and grow potatoes

said

Pigling Bland

58



he put

his other hand

in his other pocket


Alexanders

He put

his cold hand

in his pocket

and felt his paper

59



He took

a wrong turn

mdashseveral

wrong turns

and

was quite lost

Pigling squealed

then ran back

frantically

hoping

to overtake


60



It grew dark

the wind whistled

the trees

creaked and groaned

61




and cried

Wee wee wee

I cant find my way

home

62



the moon shone

through

the clouds

and Pigling Bland

saw a country

that was new to him

After

an hours wandering

he got out

of the wood

63



and beyond

--in misty distance

mdashlay the hills

The road crossed

a moor

below was

a wide valley

with a river


64




made his wayto it

and crept inside --

65



Bacon and eggs

bacon and eggs

clucked a hen

on a perch

I am afraid

it IS a hen house

but what can I do

said Pigling Bland

wet and cold

and quite tired out

66



To market

to market

Jiggetty-jig

clucked a broody

(wanting to set on

her eggs)


Trap trap trap

cackle

cackle

cackle

scolded


67



In the meantime

he and the hens

fell asleep


they were

all awakened

Pigling Bland

much alarmed

determined


68



The owner


came with a lantern

and a hamper

(basket with a lid)

to catch six fowls


69



He grabbed

the white hen

roosting next

to the cock

70



then

his eye fell upon

Pigling Bland

squeezed up

in a corner

He made


--

71



and dropped him

into the hamper



of the neck

(skin on the back

of the neck)

72



The hamper

containing

six fowls

and a young pig

was no light

weight

Thenhe dropped in

five more


upon the top

of Pigling Bland

73



Pigling

although nearly

scratched to pieces


and the peppermints

inside his clothes

it was taken

down hill

unsteadily

with jerks

74



He looked up

blinking

and saw





the lid was opened

and Pigling

was lifted out

said Mr Piperson

turning Piglings

pockets inside out

76




into a corner

Pigling Bland


stool

and sat

on the edge of it


78



Mr Piperson

pulled off a boot

and threw it

againstthe wainscot

(wood paneling)


79



Pigling Bland

warmed

his hands

and eyed him

There was


ldquoShut uprdquo

said

Mr Piperson

80



Mr Piperson

pulled off

the other boot



81



Pigling Bland sat

on the very edge

of the coppy

(cut-off short)

stool

Be quiet

said

Mr Piperson

82



and made


Mr Piperson

fetched meal

from a chest

83





of the kitchen

was taking

a suppressed

(pushed down)


84



but

he was

too hungry

to be troubled

by noises

85



Mr Piperson



and a third

-after glaring

at Pigling--

86



87

he put away

with much

scuffling

and locked up

Pigling Bland

ate his supper





consulted

an almanac

(reference book)

and felt

Piglings ribs

88



Besides

the hens

had seen this pig

It was too late

in the season

for curing bacon

and he grudged

his meal

89



ldquoYou may sleep

on the rugrdquo

said Mr Peter

Thomas Piperson

Pigling Bland

slept like a top


remains of a flitch

(side of bacon)

and then looked

undecidedly

at Pigling

90



He looked

how much

meal was left

in the chest

and seemed

dissatisfied--


more porridge

(oatmeal)

the weather

was warmer

91




reply

a neighbor

who was giving


a lift

whistled

from the gate

Youll likely

be moving on

again

said he

to Pigling Bland

92



or

Ill come back

and skin ye

said Mr Piperson

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

to shut the door

behind him


93



But

he distrusted

Peter Thomas

It crossed Piglings

mind


for a lift too

he might

still have been

in timefor market

94



After finishing


Pigling had

a look round

the cottage


95



Pigling

ate the peel

and washed up

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

and far away--

He sang


Tom



97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling


next day


He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

105



Pigling Bland

sat by the fire

eating his supper

106

All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

My name

Make me more

porridge please

107



Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

108




he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

here

asked

Pigling Bland

110



What for

replied Pig-wig

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

111



I shall

decidedly

Pigling

112



Pigling Bland made

more porridge

It grew dark

and cried

Wee wee wee

the moon shone

through

the clouds

and Pigling Bland

saw a country

that was new to him

After

an hours wandering

he got out

of the wood

The road crossed

a moor

The owner

his eye fell upon

He made

Pigling Bland

slept like a top

undecidedly

at Pigling

He looked

dissatisfied--


more porridge

to Pigling Bland

92

said Mr Piperson

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

to shut the door

But

he distrusted

It crossed Piglings

mind


for a lift too

94



After finishing


Pigling had

a look round

the cottage


95



Pigling

ate the peel

and washed up

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

and far away--

He sang


Tom



97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling


next day


He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

105



Pigling Bland

sat by the fire

eating his supper

106

All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

My name

Make me more

107



Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

108




he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

here

asked

Pigling Bland

110



What for

Bacon hams

replied Pig-wig

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

111



I shall

said Pig-wig

decidedly


away

exclaimed

the horrified

Pigling

112



Pigling Bland made

more porridge

and watched her

shyly

113



You cant go

said

Pigling Bland


got up


as though she were

going to start

114



I knowwe can see

this little

white house

from the hills

across the river

Pig-wig

looked anxious

Do you knowyour way

by day-light

115



To market


Which way

are YOU going

Mr Pig

116



I might take you

to the bridge

if you have

no objectionrdquo

117

said Pigling

much confused

and sitting

on the edge

of his coppy stool



and she asked

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

and pretend

to sleep

119



Only the corners

replied Pig-wig


with much interest

by the firelight

I thought

you had

eaten them

said Pigling

waking suddenly

120




peppermints

into her pocket

Sing something

she demanded

I wish you wouldnt

he might smell them

through the ceiling

said

the alarmed Pigling

121



Then I will sing

replied Pig-wig


iddy tidditty

I am sorry

I have tooth- ache

said Pigling

much dismayed

122




he sat

with his eyes

half shut

and watched her

I have forgotten

some of the words

123



Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124




umph

and the little pigs

said

wee wee

A funny old

mother pig

lived in a stye

and three little

piggies had she

125



She sang

successfully

through three

or four verses

only

at every verse

her head nodded

a little lower

126



And her

twinkly eyes

closed up--

127

F h h



For somehow they

couldnt say

they wouldnt say

for the rest


to the chirping

of the crickets

132



She was excited

and

half- frightened

But its dark

How can we

Early


dark and daylight

Pigling tied up

his little bundle

and woke up

Pig-wig

133



The cock

has crowed

we must start


they might shout

to Mr Piperson

134



Come away

Pig-wig

we can see when

we get used to it

Come

I can hear

them clucking

Pig-wig sat down


to cry

135



He opened

the house door

quietly

and shut it

after them



being peaceable

also

he remembered

the hamper

136



There was

no garden

the neighborhood

of Mr Pipersons

was

all scratched up

by fowls

137



They slipped away

hand in hand


to the road

138



Butall the tune

that he could play

was

`Over the hills

The sunshine crept

into the peaceful

green valleys

where little white

cottages nestled

143

and commenced

to dance

Pig-wig ate

Suddenly

Pigling stopped

he heard wheels

149



The reins flapped

on the horses back


a newspaper

Slowly jogging

up the road

below themcame

a tradesmans cart

150



Take that

peppermint

out of your mouth

Pig-wig

have to run

151



And in sight

said poor Pigling

nearly crying

ldquoDont say

Leave it to me

152

h



The grocer




shied and snorted

He began to walk

frightfully lame


153



He pulled the cart

crossways

and held down

his whip

154



Hallo



at him vacantly

Are you deaf

155



Are you going

to market

Pigling

nodded slowly

I thought

as much

It was yesterday

Pigling stared



which had

picked up a stone

157



ldquoPapers

The grocer


158



The grocer

read them

but still seemed

dissatisfied

Pigling fumbled

in all his pockets

and handed up

the papers

159



Pig-wig opened

her mouth

and shut it again

Pigling coughed

asthmatically

This here pig

Alexander

160



Lost stolen

or strayed

10S reward

he looked

suspiciously

at Pig-wig

The grocer ran

his finger down


of his newspaper

161




and speak to him

said the grocer

gathering up

the reins

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

162



but surely

such a VERY

lame pig

could never run

He knew that pigs

are slippery

163



Not yet

Pig-wig

he will look back

164



Then he

looked over

at his

horses heels

The grocer did so

he saw

the two pigs

stock-still

in the middle

of the road

165



after he got

to the plowman

it was lame also


to knock out

Pigling tied up

The cock

134



Come away

Pig-wig

Come

Pig-wig sat down


to cry

135



He opened

the house door

quietly

also

he remembered

the hamper

There was

Pigling fumbled

in all his pockets

Pigling coughed

asthmatically

said the grocer

gathering up

the reins

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

162



but surely

such a VERY

He knew that pigs

are slippery

163



Not yet

Pig-wig

Then he

looked over

inquired

Pigling Bland

48



But


with the police

Pigling Bland

did not like

going on alone

and it was

beginning

to rain

49



To conclude

the adventures

of Alexander--

he gave

his brother

a peppermint

out of sight

by a damp

subdued little pig

53




how much time

had been wasted

by the frivolity

(silliness)

of Alexander

Pigling Bland

was shocked




54



He glanced

wistfully

(thoughtfully

longingly)

along the road

towards the hills

and then set off

55





all by himself

in a crowded

market

walking obediently

the other way

buttoning up

his coat

against the rain

56



to be stared at

pushed

and hired

by some big

strange farmer

was very

disagreeable--

57



I wish I could have

a little garden

and grow potatoes

said

Pigling Bland

58



he put

his other hand

in his other pocket


Alexanders

He put

his cold hand

in his pocket

and felt his paper

59



He took

a wrong turn

mdashseveral

wrong turns

and

was quite lost

Pigling squealed

then ran back

frantically

hoping

to overtake


60



It grew dark

the wind whistled

the trees

creaked and groaned

61




and cried

Wee wee wee

I cant find my way

home

62



the moon shone

through

the clouds

and Pigling Bland

saw a country

that was new to him

After

an hours wandering

he got out

of the wood

63



and beyond

--in misty distance

mdashlay the hills

The road crossed

a moor

below was

a wide valley

with a river


64




made his wayto it

and crept inside --

65



Bacon and eggs

bacon and eggs

clucked a hen

on a perch

I am afraid

it IS a hen house

but what can I do

said Pigling Bland

wet and cold

and quite tired out

66



To market

to market

Jiggetty-jig

clucked a broody

(wanting to set on

her eggs)


Trap trap trap

cackle

cackle

cackle

scolded


67



In the meantime

he and the hens

fell asleep


they were

all awakened

Pigling Bland

much alarmed

determined


68



The owner


came with a lantern

and a hamper

(basket with a lid)

to catch six fowls


69



He grabbed

the white hen

roosting next

to the cock

70



then

his eye fell upon

Pigling Bland

squeezed up

in a corner

He made


--

71



and dropped him

into the hamper



of the neck

(skin on the back

of the neck)

72



The hamper

containing

six fowls

and a young pig

was no light

weight

Thenhe dropped in

five more


upon the top

of Pigling Bland

73



Pigling

although nearly

scratched to pieces


and the peppermints

inside his clothes

it was taken

down hill

unsteadily

with jerks

74



He looked up

blinking

and saw





the lid was opened

and Pigling

was lifted out

75




whatever

said Mr Piperson

turning Piglings

pockets inside out

76




into a corner





77



Pigling Bland


stool

and sat

on the edge of it


78



Mr Piperson

pulled off a boot

and threw it

againstthe wainscot

(wood paneling)


79



Pigling Bland

warmed

his hands

and eyed him

There was


ldquoShut uprdquo

said

Mr Piperson

80



Mr Piperson

pulled off

the other boot



81



Pigling Bland sat

on the very edge

of the coppy

(cut-off short)

stool

Be quiet

said

Mr Piperson

82



and made


Mr Piperson

fetched meal

from a chest

83





of the kitchen

was taking

a suppressed

(pushed down)


84



but

he was

too hungry

to be troubled

by noises

85



Mr Piperson



and a third

-after glaring

at Pigling--

86



87

he put away

with much

scuffling

and locked up

Pigling Bland

ate his supper





consulted

an almanac

(reference book)

and felt

Piglings ribs

88



Besides

the hens

had seen this pig

It was too late

in the season

for curing bacon

and he grudged

his meal

89



ldquoYou may sleep

on the rugrdquo

said Mr Peter

Thomas Piperson

Pigling Bland

slept like a top


remains of a flitch

(side of bacon)

and then looked

undecidedly

at Pigling

90



He looked

how much

meal was left

in the chest

and seemed

dissatisfied--


more porridge

(oatmeal)

the weather

was warmer

91




reply

a neighbor

who was giving


a lift

whistled

from the gate

Youll likely

be moving on

again

said he

to Pigling Bland

92



or

Ill come back

and skin ye

said Mr Piperson

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

to shut the door

behind him


93



But

he distrusted

Peter Thomas

It crossed Piglings

mind


for a lift too

he might

still have been

in timefor market

94



After finishing


Pigling had

a look round

the cottage


95



Pigling

ate the peel

and washed up

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

and far away--

He sang


Tom



97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling


next day


He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

105



Pigling Bland

sat by the fire

eating his supper

106

All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

My name

is Pig-wig

107



Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

108




he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

here

asked

Pigling Bland

110



What for

replied Pig-wig

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

111



I shall

said Pig-wig

decidedly


away

exclaimed

the horrified

Pigling

112



Pigling Bland made

more porridge

and watched her

shyly

113

said

Pigling Bland


got up


as though she were

going to start

114



I knowwe can see

this little

white house

from the hills

across the river

Pig-wig

looked anxious

Do you knowyour way

115



To market


Which way

116

no objectionrdquo

The road crossed

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

After finishing


Pigling had

a look round

Pigling

ate the peel

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

He sang

97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling

He did lock

Pigling Bland

All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

asked

Pigling Bland

110



What for

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

111

decidedly

exclaimed

the horrified

Pigling

112



Pigling Bland made

more porridge

and watched her

shyly

113

said

Pigling Bland


got up


as though she were

going to start

114



I knowwe can see

Pig-wig

looked anxious

Do you knowyour way

said Pigling

much confused

and sitting

on the edge

of his coppy stool



and she asked

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

and pretend

to sleep

the alarmed Pigling

121



Then I will sing

replied Pig-wig


iddy tidditty

I am sorry

I have tooth- ache

said Pigling

much dismayed

122




he sat

with his eyes

half shut

and watched her

I have forgotten

some of the words

123



Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124




umph

and the little pigs

said

A funny old

mother pig

lived in a stye

piggies had she

125



She sang

successfully

through three

at every verse

her head nodded

a little lower

And her

twinkly eyes

closed up--

F h h



For somehow they

132



She was excited

and

half- frightened

But its dark

How can we

Early

Pigling tied up

his little bundle

and woke up

Pig-wig

133



The cock

has crowed

we must start


they might shout

to Mr Piperson

134



Come away

Pig-wig

we can see when

we get used to it

Come

I can hear

them clucking

Pig-wig sat down


to cry

135



He opened

the house door

quietly

and shut it

after them



being peaceable

also

he remembered

the hamper

136



There was

no garden

the neighborhood

of Mr Pipersons

was

all scratched up

by fowls

137



They slipped away

hand in hand


to the road

138



Butall the tune

that he could play

was

`Over the hills

and far away

Tom Tom

the pipers son

Why

cottages nestled

143

and commenced

to dance

Pig-wig ate

Pig-wig

Pig-wig

crossed over

148



Suddenly

Pigling stopped

he heard wheels

149



The reins flapped

on the horses back


a newspaper

Slowly jogging

up the road

below themcame

a tradesmans cart

150



Take that

peppermint

out of your mouth

Pig-wig

have to run

151



And in sight

said poor Pigling

nearly crying

ldquoDont say

Leave it to me

152

h



The grocer




shied and snorted

He began to walk

frightfully lame


153



He pulled the cart

crossways

and held down

his whip

154



Hallo



at him vacantly

Are you deaf

155



Are you going

to market

Pigling

nodded slowly

I thought

as much

It was yesterday

Pigling stared



which had

picked up a stone

157



ldquoPapers

The grocer


158



The grocer

read them

but still seemed

dissatisfied

Pigling fumbled

in all his pockets

and handed up

the papers

159



Pig-wig opened

her mouth

and shut it again

Pigling coughed

asthmatically

This here pig

Alexander

160



Lost stolen

or strayed

10S reward

he looked

suspiciously

at Pig-wig

The grocer ran

his finger down


of his newspaper

161




and speak to him

said the grocer

gathering up

the reins

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

162



but surely

such a VERY

lame pig

could never run

He knew that pigs

are slippery

163



Not yet

Pig-wig

he will look back

164



Then he

looked over

at his

horses heels

The grocer did so

he saw

the two pigs

stock-still

in the middle

of the road

165



after he got

to the plowman

it was lame also


to knock out

She was excited

But its dark

How can we

Early

Pigling tied up

his little bundle

and woke up

Pig-wig

133



The cock

has crowed

we must start


they might shout

to Mr Piperson

134



Come away

Pig-wig

we can see when

we get used to it

Come

I can hear

them clucking

Pig-wig sat down


to cry

135



He opened

the house door

quietly

and shut it

after them



being peaceable

also

he remembered

the hamper

136



There was

no garden

They slipped away

Suddenly

Pigling stopped

The reins flapped

on the horses back


a newspaper

Slowly jogging

up the road

a tradesmans cart

150



Take that

The grocer




shied and snorted

He began to walk

frightfully lame


153



He pulled the cart

crossways

and held down

his whip

154



Hallo



at him vacantly

Are you deaf

155

Pigling

nodded slowly

I thought

The grocer

read them

but still seemed

dissatisfied

Pigling fumbled

in all his pockets

and handed up

the papers

Pig-wig opened

her mouth

and shut it again

Pigling coughed

asthmatically

This here pig

160



Lost stolen

he looked

suspiciously

at Pig-wig

The grocer ran

his finger down


of his newspaper

161




and speak to him

said the grocer

gathering up

the reins

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

162



but surely

such a VERY

lame pig

could never run

He knew that pigs

are slippery

163



Not yet

Pig-wig

he will look back

164



Then he

looked over

at his

The grocer did so

he saw

the two pigs

stock-still

in the middle

after he got

to the plowman

it was lame also

They had nearly

I see no reason

young Sir

Can I come back

inquired

Pigling Bland

48



But


with the police

Pigling Bland

did not like

going on alone

and it was

beginning

to rain

49



To conclude

the adventures

of Alexander--

he gave

his brother

a peppermint

and watched him

out of sight

50




to the house

about tea time

followed

by a damp

subdued little pig

he did fairly well

53




how much time

had been wasted

by the frivolity

(silliness)

of Alexander

Pigling Bland

was shocked




54



He glanced

wistfully

(thoughtfully

longingly)

along the road

towards the hills

and then set off

55





all by himself

in a crowded

market

walking obediently

the other way

buttoning up

his coat

against the rain

56



to be stared at

pushed

and hired

by some big

strange farmer

was very

disagreeable--

57



I wish I could have

a little garden

and grow potatoes

said

Pigling Bland

58



he put

his other hand

in his other pocket


Alexanders

He put

his cold hand

in his pocket

and felt his paper

59



He took

a wrong turn

mdashseveral

wrong turns

and

was quite lost

Pigling squealed

then ran back

frantically

hoping

to overtake


60



It grew dark

the wind whistled

the trees

creaked and groaned

61




and cried

Wee wee wee

I cant find my way

home

62



the moon shone

through

the clouds

and Pigling Bland

saw a country

that was new to him

After

an hours wandering

he got out

of the wood

63



and beyond

--in misty distance

mdashlay the hills

The road crossed

a moor

below was

a wide valley

with a river


64




made his wayto it

and crept inside --

65



Bacon and eggs

bacon and eggs

clucked a hen

on a perch

I am afraid

it IS a hen house

but what can I do

said Pigling Bland

wet and cold

and quite tired out

66



To market

to market

Jiggetty-jig

clucked a broody

(wanting to set on

her eggs)


Trap trap trap

cackle

cackle

cackle

scolded


67



In the meantime

he and the hens

fell asleep


they were

all awakened

Pigling Bland

much alarmed

determined


68



The owner


came with a lantern

and a hamper

(basket with a lid)

to catch six fowls


69



He grabbed

the white hen

roosting next

to the cock

70



then

his eye fell upon

Pigling Bland

squeezed up

in a corner

He made


--

71



and dropped him

into the hamper



of the neck

(skin on the back

of the neck)

72



The hamper

containing

six fowls

and a young pig

was no light

weight

Thenhe dropped in

five more


upon the top

of Pigling Bland

73



Pigling

although nearly

scratched to pieces


and the peppermints

inside his clothes

it was taken

down hill

unsteadily

with jerks

74



He looked up

blinking

and saw





the lid was opened

and Pigling

was lifted out

75




whatever

said Mr Piperson

turning Piglings

pockets inside out

76




into a corner





77



Pigling Bland


stool

and sat

on the edge of it


78



Mr Piperson

pulled off a boot

and threw it

againstthe wainscot

(wood paneling)


79



Pigling Bland

warmed

his hands

and eyed him

There was


ldquoShut uprdquo

said

Mr Piperson

80



Mr Piperson

pulled off

the other boot



81



Pigling Bland sat

on the very edge

of the coppy

(cut-off short)

stool

Be quiet

will ye

said

Mr Piperson

82



and made


Mr Piperson

fetched meal

from a chest

83





of the kitchen

was taking

a suppressed

(pushed down)


84



but

he was

too hungry

to be troubled

by noises

85



Mr Piperson



and a third

-after glaring

at Pigling--

86



87

he put away

with much

scuffling

and locked up

Pigling Bland

ate his supper





consulted

an almanac

(reference book)

and felt

Piglings ribs

88



Besides

the hens

had seen this pig

It was too late

in the season

for curing bacon

and he grudged

his meal

89



ldquoYou may sleep

on the rugrdquo

said Mr Peter

Thomas Piperson

Pigling Bland

slept like a top


remains of a flitch

(side of bacon)

and then looked

undecidedly

at Pigling

90



He looked

how much

meal was left

in the chest

and seemed

dissatisfied--


more porridge

(oatmeal)

the weather

was warmer

91




reply

a neighbor

who was giving


a lift

whistled

from the gate

Youll likely

be moving on

again

said he

to Pigling Bland

92



or

Ill come back

and skin ye

said Mr Piperson

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

to shut the door

behind him


93



But

he distrusted

Peter Thomas

It crossed Piglings

mind


for a lift too

he might

still have been

in timefor market

94



After finishing


Pigling had

a look round

the cottage


95



Pigling

ate the peel

and washed up

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

and far away--

He sang


Tom



97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling


next day


He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

105



Pigling Bland

sat by the fire

eating his supper

106

ll



All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

My name

is Pig-wig

Make me more

porridge please

107



Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

108




he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

here

asked

Pigling Bland

110



What for

Bacon hams

replied Pig-wig

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

111



I shall

after supper

said Pig-wig

decidedly


away

exclaimed

the horrified

Pigling

112



Pigling Bland made

more porridge

and watched her

shyly

113



You cant go

in the darkrdquo

said

Pigling Bland


got up


as though she were

going to start

114



I knowwe can see

this little

white house

from the hills

across the river

Pig-wig

looked anxious

Do you knowyour way

by day-light

115



To market


Which way

are YOU going

Mr Pig

116



I might take you

to the bridge

if you have

no objectionrdquo

117

said Pigling

much confused

and sitting

on the edge

of his coppy stool



and she asked

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

and pretend

to sleep

119



Only the corners

replied Pig-wig


with much interest

by the firelight

I thought

you had

eaten them

said Pigling

waking suddenly

120




peppermints

into her pocket

Sing something

she demanded

I wish you wouldnt

he might smell them

through the ceiling

said

the alarmed Pigling

121



Then I will sing

replied Pig-wig


iddy tidditty

I am sorry

I have tooth- ache

said Pigling

much dismayed

122




he sat

with his eyes

half shut

and watched her

I have forgotten

some of the words

123



Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124




umph

and the little pigs

said

wee wee

A funny old

mother pig

lived in a stye

piggies had she

125



She sang

successfully

through three

or four verses

only

at every verse

her head nodded

a little lower

126



And her

closed up--

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

After finishing


Pigling had

a look round

Pigling

ate the peel

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

He sang


Tom



97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling

He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

Pigling Bland

sat by the fire

eating his supper

All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

107



Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

108




he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

asked

Pigling Bland

110



What for

Bacon hams

replied Pig-wig

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

111

decidedly

exclaimed

the horrified

Pigling

112



Pigling Bland made

more porridge

shyly

Pigling Bland

as though she were

going to start

I knowwe can see

Pig-wig

looked anxious

said Pigling

much confused

and sitting

on the edge

of his coppy stool



and she asked

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

and pretend

to sleep

119

said Pigling

much dismayed

122




he sat

with his eyes

half shut

and watched her

I have forgotten

some of the words

Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124

A funny old

mother pig

She sang

She was excited

Early

Pigling tied up

his little bundle

and woke up

Pig-wig

133



The cock

to Mr Piperson

134



Come away

Pig-wig

we can see when

we get used to it

Come

I can hear

them clucking

Pig-wig sat down


to cry

135



He opened

the house door

quietly

and shut it

after them



being peaceable

also

he remembered

the hamper

136



There was

no garden

the neighborhood

of Mr Pipersons

was

all scratched up

by fowls

137



They slipped away

hand in hand


to the road

138



Butall the tune

that he could play

was

`Over the hills

The sunshine crept

down the slopes

into the peaceful

green valleys

where little white

cottages nestled

143

and commenced

to dance

inquired Pig-wig

Pigling Bland

Pigling Bland

and followed


Pig-wig ate

Pig-wig

towards

Pig-wig

crossed over

148



Suddenly

Pigling stopped

he heard wheels

149



The reins flapped

on the horses back


a newspaper

Slowly jogging

up the road

below themcame

a tradesmans cart

150



Take that

peppermint

out of your mouth

Pig-wig

we may

have to run

151



And in sight

said poor Pigling

nearly crying

ldquoDont say

Leave it to me

152

h



The grocer




shied and snorted

He began to walk

frightfully lame


153



He pulled the cart

crossways

and held down

his whip

154



Hallo



at him vacantly

Are you deaf

155



Are you going

to market

Pigling

nodded slowly

I thought

as much

It was yesterday

156

Sh



Show me your

Pigling stared



which had

picked up a stone

157



ldquoPapers

The grocer


158



The grocer

read them

but still seemed

dissatisfied

Pigling fumbled

in all his pockets

and handed up

the papers

159



Pig-wig opened

her mouth

and shut it again

Pigling coughed

asthmatically

This here pig

is a young lady

is her name

Alexander

160



Lost stolen

or strayed

10S reward

he looked

suspiciously

at Pig-wig

The grocer ran

his finger down


of his newspaper

161




and speak to him

said the grocer

gathering up

the reins

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

162



but surely

such a VERY

lame pig

could never run

He knew that pigs

are slippery

163



Not yet

Pig-wig

he will look back

164



Then he

looked over

at his

horses heels

The grocer did so

he saw

the two pigs

stock-still

in the middle

of the road

165



after he got

to the plowman

it was lame also


to knock out

166

Now

Pigling Bland

Then they started

Pigling Bland

34



He danced about

Alexander

doubtfully

he dropped the pin

They had nearly

Pigling Bland

Alexanders nose

lengthened visibly

Can I come back

inquired

Pigling Bland

48



But


with the police

Pigling Bland

did not like

going on alone

and it was

beginning

to rain

49



To conclude

the adventures

of Alexander--

he gave

his brother

a peppermint

and watched him

out of sight

50




to the house

about tea time

followed

by a damp

subdued little pig

51



he did fairly well

when he had

53




how much time

had been wasted

by the frivolity

(silliness)

of Alexander

Pigling Bland

was shocked




54



He glanced

wistfully

(thoughtfully

longingly)

along the road

towards the hills

and then set off

55





all by himself

in a crowded

market

walking obediently

the other way

buttoning up

his coat

against the rain

56



to be stared at

pushed

and hired

by some big

strange farmer

was very

disagreeable--

57



I wish I could have

a little garden

and grow potatoes

said

Pigling Bland

58



he put

his other hand

in his other pocket


Alexanders

He put

his cold hand

in his pocket

and felt his paper

59



He took

a wrong turn

mdashseveral

wrong turns

and

was quite lost

Pigling squealed

then ran back

frantically

hoping

to overtake


60



It grew dark

the wind whistled

the trees

creaked and groaned

61




and cried

Wee wee wee

I cant find my way

home

62



the moon shone

through

the clouds

and Pigling Bland

saw a country

that was new to him

After

an hours wandering

he got out

of the wood

Pigling Bland

did not like

To conclude

He glanced

I wish I could have

Pigling Bland

he put

in his other pocket


Alexanders

He put

his cold hand

in his pocket

and felt his paper

59



He took

a wrong turn

Pigling squealed

then ran back

frantically

hoping

to overtake


60



It grew dark

the wind whistled

the trees

creaked and groaned

61




and cried

Wee wee wee

I cant find my way

home

62



the moon shone

through

the clouds

and Pigling Bland

saw a country

that was new to him

After

an hours wandering

he got out

of the wood

63



and beyond

--in misty distance

mdashlay the hills

The road crossed

a moor

below was

a wide valley

with a river

made his wayto it

and crept inside --

Bacon and eggs

In the meantime

fell asleep


they were

all awakened

Pigling Bland

much alarmed

determined


68



The owner


came with a lantern

and a hamper

(basket with a lid)

to catch six fowls


69



He grabbed

the white hen

roosting next

to the cock

70



then

his eye fell upon

Pigling Bland

squeezed up

in a corner

He made

71



and dropped him

into the hamper

72



The hamper

containing

Thenhe dropped in

five more


upon the top

of Pigling Bland

73



Pigling

although nearly

scratched to pieces


and the peppermints

inside his clothes

it was taken

down hill

unsteadily

with jerks

74



He looked up

blinking

and saw





the lid was opened

and Pigling

was lifted out

said Mr Piperson

turning Piglings

pockets inside out

into a corner

Pigling Bland

and sat

on the edge of it


78



Mr Piperson

pulled off a boot

and threw it

79



Pigling Bland

warmed

There was

said

Mr Piperson

80



Mr Piperson

pulled off

Pigling Bland sat

on the very edge

Be quiet

Mr Piperson

82



and made


Mr Piperson

83





of the kitchen

(pushed down)


84



but

he was

too hungry

to be troubled

by noises

85



Mr Piperson



and a third

-after glaring

at Pigling--

86



87

he put away

with much

scuffling

and locked up

Pigling Bland

ate his supper





consulted

an almanac

(reference book)

and felt

Piglings ribs

88



Besides

the hens

had seen this pig

It was too late

in the season

for curing bacon

and he grudged

his meal

89



ldquoYou may sleep

on the rugrdquo

said Mr Peter

Thomas Piperson

Pigling Bland

slept like a top


remains of a flitch

(side of bacon)

and then looked

undecidedly

at Pigling

90



He looked

how much

meal was left

in the chest

and seemed

dissatisfied--


more porridge

(oatmeal)

the weather

was warmer

91




reply

a neighbor

who was giving


a lift

whistled

from the gate

Youll likely

be moving on

again

said he

to Pigling Bland

92



or

Ill come back

and skin ye

said Mr Piperson

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

to shut the door

behind him


93



But

he distrusted

Peter Thomas

It crossed Piglings

mind


for a lift too

he might

still have been

in timefor market

94



After finishing


Pigling had

a look round

the cottage


95



Pigling

ate the peel

and washed up

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

and far away--

He sang


Tom



97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling


next day


He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

105



Pigling Bland

sat by the fire

eating his supper

106

ll



All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

My name

is Pig-wig

Make me more

porridge please

107



Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

108




he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

here

asked

Pigling Bland

110



What for

Bacon hams

replied Pig-wig

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

111



I shall

after supper

said Pig-wig

decidedly


away

exclaimed

the horrified

Pigling

112



Pigling Bland made

more porridge

and watched her

shyly

113



You cant go

in the darkrdquo

said

Pigling Bland


got up


as though she were

going to start

114



I knowwe can see

this little

white house

from the hills

across the river

Pig-wig

looked anxious

Do you knowyour way

by day-light

115



To market


Which way

are YOU going

Mr Pig

116



I might take you

to the bridge

if you have

no objectionrdquo

117

said Pigling

much confused

and sitting

on the edge

of his coppy stool



and she asked

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

and pretend

to sleep

119



Only the corners

replied Pig-wig


with much interest

by the firelight

I thought

you had

eaten them

said Pigling

waking suddenly

120




peppermints

into her pocket

Sing something

she demanded

I wish you wouldnt

he might smell them

through the ceiling

said

the alarmed Pigling

121



Then I will sing

replied Pig-wig


iddy tidditty

I am sorry

I have tooth- ache

said Pigling

much dismayed

122




he sat

with his eyes

half shut

and watched her

I have forgotten

some of the words

123



Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124




umph

and the little pigs

said

wee wee

A funny old

mother pig

lived in a stye

and three little

piggies had she

125



She sang

successfully

through three

or four verses

only

at every verse

her head nodded

a little lower

126



And her

twinkly eyes

closed up--

127

F h h



For somehow they

couldnt say

132



She was excited

half- frightened

But its dark

How can we

Early

Pigling tied up

his little bundle

and woke up

Pig-wig

133



The cock

has crowed

to Mr Piperson

134



Come away

Pig-wig

we can see when

we get used to it

Come

I can hear

them clucking

Pig-wig sat down


to cry

135



He opened

the house door

quietly

and shut it

after them



being peaceable

also

he remembered

the hamper

136



There was

no garden

of Mr Pipersons

was

all scratched up

from a chest

83





of the kitchen

was taking

a suppressed

(pushed down)


84



but

he was

too hungry

to be troubled

by noises

85



Mr Piperson



and a third

-after glaring

at Pigling--

86



87

he put away

with much

scuffling

and locked up

Pigling Bland

ate his supper





consulted

an almanac

(reference book)

and felt

Piglings ribs

88



Besides

the hens

had seen this pig

It was too late

in the season

for curing bacon

and he grudged

his meal

89



ldquoYou may sleep

on the rugrdquo

said Mr Peter

Thomas Piperson

Pigling Bland

slept like a top


remains of a flitch

(side of bacon)

and then looked

undecidedly

at Pigling

90



He looked

how much

meal was left

in the chest

and seemed

dissatisfied--


more porridge

(oatmeal)

the weather

was warmer

91




reply

a neighbor

who was giving


a lift

whistled

from the gate

Youll likely

be moving on

again

said he

to Pigling Bland

92



or

Ill come back

and skin ye

said Mr Piperson

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

to shut the door

behind him


93



But

he distrusted

Peter Thomas

It crossed Piglings

mind


for a lift too

he might

still have been

in timefor market

94



After finishing


Pigling had

a look round

the cottage


95



Pigling

ate the peel

and washed up

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

and far away--

He sang


Tom



97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling


next day


He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

105



Pigling Bland

sat by the fire

eating his supper

106

ll



All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

My name

is Pig-wig

Make me more

porridge please

107



Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

108




he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

here

asked

Pigling Bland

110



What for

Bacon hams

replied Pig-wig

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

111



I shall

after supper

said Pig-wig

decidedly


away

exclaimed

the horrified

Pigling

112



Pigling Bland made

more porridge

and watched her

shyly

113



You cant go

in the darkrdquo

said

Pigling Bland


got up


as though she were

going to start

114



I knowwe can see

this little

white house

from the hills

across the river

Pig-wig

looked anxious

Do you knowyour way

by day-light

115



To market


Which way

are YOU going

Mr Pig

116



I might take you

to the bridge

if you have

no objectionrdquo

117

said Pigling

much confused

and sitting

on the edge

of his coppy stool



and she asked

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

and pretend

to sleep

119



Only the corners

replied Pig-wig


with much interest

by the firelight

I thought

you had

eaten them

said Pigling

waking suddenly

120




peppermints

into her pocket

Sing something

she demanded

I wish you wouldnt

he might smell them

through the ceiling

said

the alarmed Pigling

121



Then I will sing

replied Pig-wig


iddy tidditty

I am sorry

I have tooth- ache

said Pigling

much dismayed

122




he sat

with his eyes

half shut

and watched her

I have forgotten

some of the words

123



Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124




umph

and the little pigs

said

wee wee

A funny old

mother pig

lived in a stye

and three little

piggies had she

125



She sang

successfully

through three

or four verses

only

at every verse

her head nodded

a little lower

126



And her

twinkly eyes

closed up--

127

F h h



For somehow they

couldnt say

and

they wouldnt say

for the rest


to the chirping

of the crickets

and to the snores


132



She was excited

and

half- frightened

But its dark

How can we

Early


dark and daylight

Pigling tied up

his little bundle

and woke up

Pig-wig

133



The cock

has crowed

we must start


they might shout

to Mr Piperson

134



Come away

Pig-wig

we can see when

we get used to it

Come

I can hear

them clucking

Pig-wig sat down


to cry

135



He opened

the house door

quietly

and shut it

after them



being peaceable

also

he remembered

the hamper

136



There was

no garden

the neighborhood

of Mr Pipersons

was

all scratched up

by fowls

137



They slipped away

hand in hand


to the road

138



Butall the tune

that he could play

was

`Over the hills

and far away

Tom Tom

the pipers son

Why

Pigling

inquired Pig-wig

Come Pig-wig

The sun rose

The sunshine crept

down the slopes

into the peaceful

green valleys

where little white

cottages nestled

said Pig-wig

143

and commenced

to dance

singing

-- presently

144




inquired Pig-wig

Pigling Bland

grunted

Pigling Bland


145



and followed


Pig-wig ate

Pig-wig

a man plowing

147




towards

the county boundary

Pig-wig

crossed over

148



Suddenly

Pigling stopped

he heard wheels

149



The reins flapped

on the horses back


a newspaper

Slowly jogging

up the road

below themcame

a tradesmans cart

150



Take that

peppermint

out of your mouth

Pig-wig

have to run

151



And in sight

said poor Pigling

nearly crying

ldquoDont say

The grocer




shied and snorted

He began to walk

frightfully lame


153



He pulled the cart

crossways

and held down

his whip

154



Hallo



at him vacantly

Are you deaf

155



Are you going

to market

Pigling

nodded slowly

I thought

as much

It was yesterday

Pigling stared



which had

picked up a stone

157



ldquoPapers

The grocer


158



The grocer

read them

but still seemed

dissatisfied

Pigling fumbled

in all his pockets

and handed up

the papers

159



Pig-wig opened

her mouth

and shut it again

Pigling coughed

asthmatically

This here pig

160



Lost stolen

or strayed

10S reward

he looked

suspiciously

at Pig-wig

The grocer ran

his finger down


of his newspaper

161




and speak to him

said the grocer

gathering up

the reins

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

162



but surely

such a VERY

lame pig

could never run

He knew that pigs

are slippery

163



Not yet

Pig-wig

he will look back

164



Then he

looked over

at his

horses heels

The grocer did so

he saw

the two pigs

stock-still

in the middle

of the road

165



after he got

to the plowman

it was lame also


to knock out

166

They had nearly

Pigling Bland

Alexanders nose

lengthened visibly

he had lost it

Can I come back

inquired

Pigling Bland

48



But


with the police

Pigling Bland

did not like

going on alone

and it was

beginning

to rain

49



To conclude

the adventures

of Alexander--

he gave

his brother

a peppermint

and watched him

out of sight

50




to the house

about tea time

followed

by a damp

subdued little pig

51



he did fairly well

when he had

settled down

I disposed

Pigling Bland




To Market-town

53




how much time

had been wasted

by the frivolity

(silliness)

of Alexander

Pigling Bland

was shocked




54



He glanced

wistfully

(thoughtfully

longingly)

along the road

towards the hills

and then set off

55





all by himself

in a crowded

market

walking obediently

the other way

buttoning up

his coat

against the rain

56



to be stared at

pushed

and hired

by some big

strange farmer

was very

disagreeable--

57



I wish I could have

a little garden

and grow potatoes

said

Pigling Bland

58



he put

his other hand

in his other pocket


Alexanders

He put

his cold hand

in his pocket

and felt his paper

59



He took

a wrong turn

mdashseveral

wrong turns

and

was quite lost

Pigling squealed

then ran back

frantically

hoping

to overtake


60



It grew dark

the wind whistled

the trees

creaked and groaned

61




and cried

Wee wee wee

I cant find my way

home

62



the moon shone

through

the clouds

and Pigling Bland

saw a country

that was new to him

After

an hours wandering

he got out

of the wood

63



and beyond

--in misty distance

mdashlay the hills

The road crossed

a moor

below was

a wide valley

with a river


64




made his wayto it

and crept inside --

65



Bacon and eggs

clucked a hen

on a perch

I am afraid

it IS a hen house

but what can I do

said Pigling Bland

wet and cold

and quite tired out

In the meantime

The owner


came with a lantern

and a hamper

(basket with a lid)

his eye fell upon

Then they started

He danced about

This pig went

Alexander

made the road

half as long again

by skipping

from side to side

35



This pig had

Pigling

36



Pigling Bland

and Alexander

sat down

and untied

their bundles

37



Give me

Alexandergobbled up

38



Alexander


But I wish

to preserve them

for emergencies

said Pigling Bland

doubtfully

39



he dropped the pin

and tried


and the papers

got mixed up


with the pin

that had fastened

his pig paper

and when

Pigling slapped him

But

42



Whats that

young Sirs

Stole a pig

said the policeman

43



They had nearly

run against him

round a corner

44



Pigling Bland

pulled outhis paper

something

scrumply--

45



Alexanders nose

lengthened visibly

he had lost it

I had one

Mr Policeman

46



Its not likely

You may walkwith me

47



I see no reason

young Sir

your paper

Can I come back

too

inquired

Pigling Bland

48



But


with the police

Pigling Bland

did not like

going on alone

and it was

beginning

to rain

49



To conclude

the adventures

of Alexander--

he gave

his brother

a peppermint

and watched him

out of sight

50




to the house

about tea time

followed

by a damp

subdued little pig

51



he did fairly well

when he had

settled down

I disposed

of Alexander

in the

neighborhood

Over the Hills

To Pettitoes Farm

Pigling Bland




To Market-town

5 miles

53




how much time

had been wasted

by the frivolity

(silliness)

of Alexander

Pigling Bland

was shocked




54



He glanced

wistfully

(thoughtfully

longingly)

along the road

towards the hills

and then set off

55





all by himself

in a crowded

market

walking obediently

the other way

buttoning up

his coat

against the rain

56



to be stared at

pushed

and hired

by some big

strange farmer

was very

disagreeable--

57



I wish I could have

a little garden

and grow potatoes

said

Pigling Bland

58



he put

his other hand

in his other pocket


Alexanders

He put

his cold hand

in his pocket

and felt his paper

59



He took

a wrong turn

mdashseveral

wrong turns

and

was quite lost

Pigling squealed

then ran back

frantically

hoping

to overtake


60



It grew dark

the wind whistled

the trees

creaked and groaned

61




and cried

Wee wee wee

I cant find my way

home

62



the moon shone

through

the clouds

and Pigling Bland

saw a country

that was new to him

After

an hours wandering

he got out

of the wood

63



and beyond

--in misty distance

mdashlay the hills

The road crossed

a moor

below was

a wide valley

with a river


64




made his wayto it

and crept inside --

65



Bacon and eggs

bacon and eggs

clucked a hen

on a perch

I am afraid

it IS a hen house

but what can I do

said Pigling Bland

wet and cold

and quite tired out

66



To market

to market

Jiggetty-jig

clucked a broody

(wanting to set on

her eggs)


Trap trap trap

cackle

cackle

cackle

scolded


67



In the meantime

he and the hens

fell asleep


they were

all awakened

Pigling Bland

much alarmed

determined


68



The owner


came with a lantern

and a hamper

(basket with a lid)

to catch six fowls


69



He grabbed

the white hen

roosting next

to the cock

70



then

his eye fell upon

Pigling Bland

squeezed up

in a corner

He made


--

71



and dropped him

into the hamper



of the neck

(skin on the back

of the neck)

72



The hamper

containing

six fowls

and a young pig

was no light

weight

Thenhe dropped in

five more


upon the top

of Pigling Bland

73



Pigling

although nearly

scratched to pieces


and the peppermints

inside his clothes

it was taken

down hill

unsteadily

with jerks

74



He looked up

blinking

and saw





the lid was opened

and Pigling

was lifted out

75




whatever

said Mr Piperson

turning Piglings

pockets inside out

76




into a corner





77



Pigling Bland


stool

and sat

on the edge of it


78



Mr Piperson

pulled off a boot

and threw it

againstthe wainscot

(wood paneling)


79



Pigling Bland

warmed

his hands

and eyed him

There was


ldquoShut uprdquo

said

Mr Piperson

80



Mr Piperson

pulled off

the other boot



81



Pigling Bland sat

on the very edge

of the coppy

(cut-off short)

stool

Be quiet

will ye

said

Mr Piperson

82



and made


Mr Piperson

fetched meal

from a chest

83





of the kitchen

was taking

a suppressed

(pushed down)


84



but

he was

too hungry

to be troubled

by noises

85



Mr Piperson



and a third

-after glaring

at Pigling--

86



87

he put away

with much

scuffling

and locked up

Pigling Bland

ate his supper





consulted

an almanac

(reference book)

and felt

Piglings ribs

88



Besides

the hens

had seen this pig

It was too late

in the season

for curing bacon

and he grudged

his meal

89



ldquoYou may sleep

on the rugrdquo

said Mr Peter

Thomas Piperson

Pigling Bland

slept like a top


remains of a flitch

(side of bacon)

and then looked

undecidedly

at Pigling

90



He looked

how much

meal was left

in the chest

and seemed

dissatisfied--


more porridge

(oatmeal)

the weather

was warmer

91




reply

a neighbor

who was giving


a lift

whistled

from the gate

Youll likely

be moving on

again

said he

to Pigling Bland

92



or

Ill come back

and skin ye

said Mr Piperson

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

to shut the door

behind him


93



But

he distrusted

Peter Thomas

It crossed Piglings

mind


for a lift too

he might

still have been

in timefor market

94



After finishing


Pigling had

a look round

the cottage


95



Pigling

ate the peel

and washed up

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

and far away--

He sang


Tom



97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling


next day


He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

105



Pigling Bland

sat by the fire

eating his supper

106

ll



All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

My name

is Pig-wig

Make me more

porridge please

107



Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

108




he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

here

asked

Pigling Bland

110



What for

Bacon hams

replied Pig-wig

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

111



I shall

after supper

said Pig-wig

decidedly


away

exclaimed

the horrified

Pigling

112



Pigling Bland made

more porridge

and watched her

shyly

113



You cant go

in the darkrdquo

said

Pigling Bland


got up


as though she were

going to start

114



I knowwe can see

this little

white house

from the hills

across the river

Pig-wig

looked anxious

Do you knowyour way

by day-light

115



To market


Which way

are YOU going

Mr Pig

116



I might take you

to the bridge

if you have

no objectionrdquo

117

said Pigling

much confused

and sitting

on the edge

of his coppy stool



and she asked

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

and pretend

to sleep

119



Only the corners

replied Pig-wig


with much interest

by the firelight

I thought

you had

eaten them

said Pigling

waking suddenly

120




peppermints

into her pocket

Sing something

she demanded

I wish you wouldnt

he might smell them

through the ceiling

said

the alarmed Pigling

121



Then I will sing

replied Pig-wig


iddy tidditty

I am sorry

I have tooth- ache

said Pigling

much dismayed

122




he sat

with his eyes

half shut

and watched her

I have forgotten

some of the words

123



Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124




umph

and the little pigs

said

wee wee

A funny old

mother pig

lived in a stye

and three little

piggies had she

125



She sang

successfully

through three

or four verses

only

at every verse

her head nodded

a little lower

126



And her

twinkly eyes

closed up--

127

F h h



For somehow they

couldnt say

umph umph

umph

and

they wouldnt say

wee wee wee


grew peaky and lean

and lean

very well be

For somehow

He was afraid

for the rest


to the chirping

of the crickets

and to the snores


132



She was excited

and

half- frightened

But its dark

How can we

find our way

Early


dark and daylight

Pigling tied up

his little bundle

and woke up

Pig-wig

133



The cock

has crowed

we must start


they might shout

to Mr Piperson

134



Come away

Pig-wig

we can see when

we get used to it

Come

I can hear

them clucking

Pig-wig sat down


to cry

135



He opened

the house door

quietly

and shut it

after them



being peaceable

also

he remembered

the hamper

136



There was

no garden

the neighborhood

of Mr Pipersons

was

all scratched up

by fowls

137



They slipped away

hand in hand


to the road

138



Butall the tune

that he could play

was

`Over the hills

and far away

Tom Tom

the pipers son

stole a pig

and away he ran

139



Why

do you want

to go to market

Pigling

inquired Pig-wig

Come Pig-wig

The sun rose

The sunshine crept

down the slopes

into the peaceful

green valleys

where little white

cottages nestled


142

said Pig-wig

143



I dont want



and commenced

to dance

singing

-- presently

144




inquired Pig-wig

Pigling Bland

grunted

Pigling Bland


145



and followed


Pig-wig ate

Pig-wig

under the wall

147




towards

the county boundary

Pig-wig

crossed over

148



Suddenly

Pigling stopped

he heard wheels

149



The reins flapped

on the horses back


a newspaper

Slowly jogging

up the road

below themcame

a tradesmans cart

150



Take that

peppermint

out of your mouth

Pig-wig

we may

have to run

151



And in sight

said poor Pigling

nearly crying

ldquoDont say

Leave it to me

152

h



The grocer




shied and snorted

He began to walk

frightfully lame


153



He pulled the cart

crossways

and held down

his whip

154



Hallo



at him vacantly

Are you deaf

155



Are you going

to market

Pigling

nodded slowly

I thought

as much

It was yesterday

156

Sh



Show me your

Pigling stared



which had

picked up a stone

157



ldquoPapers

The grocer


158



The grocer

read them

but still seemed

dissatisfied

Pigling fumbled

in all his pockets

and handed up

the papers

159



Pig-wig opened

her mouth

and shut it again

Pigling coughed

asthmatically

This here pig

is a young lady

is her name

Alexander

160



Lost stolen

or strayed

10S reward

he looked

suspiciously

at Pig-wig

The grocer ran

his finger down


of his newspaper

161




and speak to him

said the grocer

gathering up

the reins

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

162



but surely

such a VERY

lame pig

could never run

He knew that pigs

are slippery

163



Not yet

Pig-wig

he will look back

164



Then he

looked over

at his

horses heels

The grocer did so

he saw

the two pigs

stock-still

in the middle

of the road

165



after he got

to the plowman

it was lame also


to knock out

Pigling Bland

To conclude

Pigling Bland

was shocked




54



He glanced

wistfully

(thoughtfully

along the road

towards the hills

all by himself

market

walking obediently

Pigling Bland

in his other pocket


Alexanders

He put

his cold hand

in his pocket

He took

a wrong turn

Pigling squealed

then ran back

frantically

hoping

to overtake


60



It grew dark

the wind whistled

the trees

creaked and groaned

61




and cried

Wee wee wee

I cant find my way

home

62



the moon shone

through

the clouds

and Pigling Bland

saw a country

that was new to him

After

an hours wandering

he got out

of the wood

63



and beyond

--in misty distance

mdashlay the hills

The road crossed

a moor

below was

a wide valley

with a river


64




made his wayto it

and crept inside --

65



Bacon and eggs

clucked a hen

on a perch

I am afraid

it IS a hen house

but what can I do

said Pigling Bland

wet and cold

and quite tired out

66



To market

Jiggetty-jig

clucked a broody

(wanting to set on

her eggs)


Trap trap trap

scolded


67



In the meantime

he and the hens

fell asleep


they were

all awakened

Pigling Bland

much alarmed

determined


68



The owner


came with a lantern

and a hamper

(basket with a lid)

to catch six fowls


69



He grabbed

the white hen

roosting next

to the cock

then

his eye fell upon

He made

Pigling

down hill

He looked up

on the edge of it

Mr Piperson

pulled off a boot

and threw it

againstthe wainscot

Pigling Bland

warmed

his hands

and eyed him

There was


ldquoShut uprdquo

said

Mr Piperson

80



Mr Piperson

pulled off

Pigling Bland sat

on the very edge

Be quiet

Mr Piperson

and made


Mr Piperson

Pigling Bland

slept like a top


remains of a flitch

and then looked

undecidedly

at Pigling

90



He looked

how much

meal was left

in the chest

and seemed

dissatisfied--


more porridge

(oatmeal)

the weather

was warmer

reply

a neighbor

who was giving


a lift

whistled

from the gate

Youll likely

be moving on

again

said he

to Pigling Bland

92



or

Ill come back

and skin ye

said Mr Piperson

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

to shut the door

behind him


93



But

he distrusted

Peter Thomas

It crossed Piglings

mind


for a lift too

he might

still have been

in timefor market

94



After finishing


Pigling had

a look round

the cottage


95



Pigling

ate the peel

and washed up

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

and far away--

He sang


Tom



97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling


next day


He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

105



Pigling Bland

sat by the fire

eating his supper

106

All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

My name

is Pig-wig

Make me more

porridge please

107



Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

108




he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

How did you come

asked

Pigling Bland

110



What for

Bacon hams

replied Pig-wig

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

111



I shall

said Pig-wig

decidedly


away

exclaimed

the horrified

Pigling

112



Pigling Bland made

more porridge

and watched her

shyly

113



You cant go

said

Pigling Bland


got up


as though she were

going to start

114



I knowwe can see

this little

white house

from the hills

across the river

Pig-wig

looked anxious

Do you knowyour way

by day-light

115



To market


Which way

are YOU going

Mr Pig

116



I might take you

to the bridge

if you have

no objectionrdquo

117

said Pigling

much confused

and sitting

on the edge

of his coppy stool



and she asked

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

and pretend

to sleep

119



Only the corners

replied Pig-wig


with much interest

by the firelight

I thought

you had

eaten them

said Pigling

waking suddenly

peppermints

into her pocket

Sing something

she demanded

I wish you wouldnt

he might smell them

through the ceiling

said

the alarmed Pigling

121



Then I will sing

replied Pig-wig


iddy tidditty

I am sorry

I have tooth- ache

said Pigling

much dismayed

122




he sat

with his eyes

half shut

and watched her

I have forgotten

some of the words

123



Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124




umph

and the little pigs

said

wee wee

A funny old

mother pig

lived in a stye

and three little

piggies had she

125



She sang

successfully

through three

or four verses

only

at every verse

her head nodded

a little lower

126



And her

twinkly eyes

closed up--

127

F h h



For somehow they

couldnt say

umph umph

umph

and

they wouldnt say

for the rest


to the chirping

of the crickets

and to the snores


132



She was excited

and

half- frightened

But its dark

How can we

find our way

Early


dark and daylight

Pigling tied up

his little bundle

and woke up

Pig-wig

133



The cock

has crowed

we must start


they might shout

to Mr Piperson

134



Come away

Pig-wig

we can see when

we get used to it

Come

I can hear

them clucking

Pig-wig sat down


to cry

135



He opened

the house door

quietly

and shut it

after them



being peaceable

also

he remembered

the hamper

136



There was

no garden

the neighborhood

of Mr Pipersons

was

all scratched up

by fowls

137



They slipped away

hand in hand


to the road

138



Butall the tune

that he could play

was

`Over the hills

and far away

Tom Tom

the pipers son

stole a pig

and away he ran

Why

Pigling

inquired Pig-wig

Come Pig-wig

The sun rose

The sunshine crept

down the slopes

into the peaceful

green valleys

where little white

cottages nestled


142

said Pig-wig

143



I dont want



and commenced

to dance

singing

-- presently

144




inquired Pig-wig

Pigling Bland

grunted

Pigling Bland

and followed


Pig-wig ate

Pig-wig

147




towards

Pig-wig

crossed over

148



Suddenly

Pigling stopped

he heard wheels

149



The reins flapped

on the horses back


a newspaper

Slowly jogging

up the road

below themcame

a tradesmans cart

150



Take that

peppermint

out of your mouth

Pig-wig

have to run

151



And in sight

said poor Pigling

nearly crying

ldquoDont say

152

The grocer




shied and snorted

He began to walk

frightfully lame


153



He pulled the cart

crossways

and held down

his whip

154



Hallo



at him vacantly

Are you deaf

155



Are you going

to market

Pigling

nodded slowly

I thought

as much

It was yesterday

Pigling stared



which had

picked up a stone

157



ldquoPapers

The grocer


158



The grocer

read them

but still seemed

dissatisfied

Pigling fumbled

in all his pockets

and handed up

the papers

159



Pig-wig opened

her mouth

and shut it again

Pigling coughed

asthmatically

This here pig

is a young lady

Alexander

160



Lost stolen

or strayed

10S reward

he looked

suspiciously

at Pig-wig

The grocer ran

his finger down


of his newspaper

161




and speak to him

said the grocer

gathering up

the reins

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

162



but surely

such a VERY

lame pig

could never run

He knew that pigs

are slippery

163



Not yet

Pig-wig

he will look back

164



Then he

looked over

at his

horses heels

The grocer did so

he saw

the two pigs

stock-still

in the middle

of the road

165



after he got

to the plowman

it was lame also


to knock out

43



They had nearly

run against him

round a corner

44



Pigling Bland

pulled outhis paper

scrumply--

45



Alexanders nose

lengthened visibly

he had lost it

I had one

Can I come back

inquired

Pigling Bland

48



But


with the police

Pigling Bland

did not like

going on alone

and it was

beginning

to rain

49



To conclude

the adventures

of Alexander--

he gave

his brother

a peppermint

and watched him

out of sight

50




to the house

about tea time

followed

by a damp

subdued little pig

51



he did fairly well

when he had

settled down

I disposed

in the

neighborhood

Over the Hills

To Pettitoes Farm

Pigling Bland




To Market-town

5 miles

53




how much time

had been wasted

by the frivolity

(silliness)

of Alexander

Pigling Bland

was shocked




54



He glanced

wistfully

(thoughtfully

longingly)

along the road

towards the hills

and then set off

55





all by himself

in a crowded

market

walking obediently

the other way

buttoning up

his coat

against the rain

56



to be stared at

pushed

and hired

by some big

strange farmer

was very

disagreeable--

57



I wish I could have

a little garden

and grow potatoes

said

Pigling Bland

58



he put

his other hand

in his other pocket


Alexanders

He put

his cold hand

in his pocket

and felt his paper

59



He took

a wrong turn

mdashseveral

wrong turns

and

was quite lost

Pigling squealed

then ran back

frantically

hoping

to overtake


60



It grew dark

the wind whistled

the trees

creaked and groaned

61




and cried

Wee wee wee

I cant find my way

home

62



the moon shone

through

the clouds

and Pigling Bland

saw a country

that was new to him

After

an hours wandering

he got out

of the wood

63



and beyond

--in misty distance

mdashlay the hills

The road crossed

a moor

below was

a wide valley

with a river


64




made his wayto it

and crept inside --

65



Bacon and eggs

bacon and eggs

clucked a hen

on a perch

I am afraid

it IS a hen house

but what can I do

said Pigling Bland

wet and cold

and quite tired out

66



To market

to market

Jiggetty-jig

clucked a broody

(wanting to set on

her eggs)


Trap trap trap

cackle

cackle

cackle

scolded


67



In the meantime

he and the hens

fell asleep


they were

all awakened

Pigling Bland

much alarmed

determined


68



The owner


came with a lantern

and a hamper

(basket with a lid)

to catch six fowls


69



He grabbed

the white hen

roosting next

to the cock

70



then

his eye fell upon

Pigling Bland

squeezed up

in a corner

He made


--

71



and dropped him

into the hamper



of the neck

(skin on the back

of the neck)

72



The hamper

containing

six fowls

and a young pig

was no light

weight

Thenhe dropped in

five more


upon the top

of Pigling Bland

73



Pigling

although nearly

scratched to pieces


and the peppermints

inside his clothes

it was taken

down hill

unsteadily

with jerks

74



He looked up

blinking

and saw





the lid was opened

and Pigling

was lifted out

75




whatever

said Mr Piperson

turning Piglings

pockets inside out

76




into a corner





77



Pigling Bland


stool

and sat

on the edge of it


78



Mr Piperson

pulled off a boot

and threw it

againstthe wainscot

(wood paneling)


79



Pigling Bland

warmed

his hands

and eyed him

There was


ldquoShut uprdquo

said

Mr Piperson

80



Mr Piperson

pulled off

the other boot



81



Pigling Bland sat

on the very edge

of the coppy

(cut-off short)

stool

Be quiet

will ye

said

Mr Piperson

82



and made


Mr Piperson

fetched meal

from a chest

83





of the kitchen

was taking

a suppressed

(pushed down)


84



but

he was

too hungry

to be troubled

by noises

85



Mr Piperson



and a third

-after glaring

at Pigling--

86



87

he put away

with much

scuffling

and locked up

Pigling Bland

ate his supper





consulted

an almanac

(reference book)

and felt

Piglings ribs

88



Besides

the hens

had seen this pig

It was too late

in the season

for curing bacon

and he grudged

his meal

89



ldquoYou may sleep

on the rugrdquo

said Mr Peter

Thomas Piperson

Pigling Bland

slept like a top


remains of a flitch

(side of bacon)

and then looked

undecidedly

at Pigling

90



He looked

how much

meal was left

in the chest

and seemed

dissatisfied--


more porridge

(oatmeal)

the weather

was warmer

91




reply

a neighbor

who was giving


a lift

whistled

from the gate

Youll likely

be moving on

again

said he

to Pigling Bland

92



or

Ill come back

and skin ye

said Mr Piperson

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

to shut the door

behind him


93



But

he distrusted

Peter Thomas

It crossed Piglings

mind


for a lift too

he might

still have been

in timefor market

94



After finishing


Pigling had

a look round

the cottage


95



Pigling

ate the peel

and washed up

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

and far away--

He sang


Tom



97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling


next day


He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

105



Pigling Bland

sat by the fire

eating his supper

106

ll



All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

My name

is Pig-wig

Make me more

porridge please

107



Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

108




he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

here

asked

Pigling Bland

110



What for

Bacon hams

replied Pig-wig

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

111



I shall

after supper

said Pig-wig

decidedly


away

exclaimed

the horrified

Pigling

112



Pigling Bland made

more porridge

and watched her

shyly

113



You cant go

in the darkrdquo

said

Pigling Bland


got up


as though she were

going to start

114



I knowwe can see

this little

white house

from the hills

across the river

Pig-wig

looked anxious

Do you knowyour way

by day-light

115



To market


Which way

are YOU going

Mr Pig

116



I might take you

to the bridge

if you have

no objectionrdquo

117

said Pigling

much confused

and sitting

on the edge

of his coppy stool



and she asked

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

and pretend

to sleep

119



Only the corners

replied Pig-wig


with much interest

by the firelight

I thought

you had

eaten them

said Pigling

waking suddenly

120




peppermints

into her pocket

Sing something

she demanded

I wish you wouldnt

he might smell them

through the ceiling

said

the alarmed Pigling

121



Then I will sing

replied Pig-wig


iddy tidditty

I am sorry

I have tooth- ache

said Pigling

much dismayed

122




he sat

with his eyes

half shut

and watched her

I have forgotten

some of the words

123



Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124

A funny old

125



She sang

successfully

at every verse

her head nodded

closed up--

Pigling coughed

gathering up

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

He knew that pigs

163



Not yet

Pig-wig

and felt his paper

59



He took

a wrong turn

mdashseveral

wrong turns

and

was quite lost

Pigling squealed

then ran back

frantically

hoping

to overtake


60



It grew dark

the wind whistled

the trees

creaked and groaned

61




and cried

Wee wee wee

I cant find my way

home

62



the moon shone

through

the clouds

and Pigling Bland

saw a country

that was new to him

After

an hours wandering

he got out

of the wood

63



and beyond

--in misty distance

mdashlay the hills

The road crossed

a moor

below was

a wide valley

with a river


64




made his wayto it

and crept inside --

65



Bacon and eggs

bacon and eggs

clucked a hen

on a perch

I am afraid

it IS a hen house

but what can I do

said Pigling Bland

wet and cold

and quite tired out

66



To market

Jiggetty-jig

clucked a broody

(wanting to set on

her eggs)


Trap trap trap

cackle

scolded


67



In the meantime

he and the hens

fell asleep


they were

all awakened

Pigling Bland

much alarmed

determined


68



The owner


came with a lantern

and a hamper

(basket with a lid)

to catch six fowls


69



He grabbed

the white hen

roosting next

to the cock

70



then

his eye fell upon

Pigling Bland

squeezed up

in a corner

He made


--

71



and dropped him

into the hamper



of the neck

(skin on the back

of the neck)

72



The hamper

containing

six fowls

and a young pig

was no light

weight

Thenhe dropped in

five more


upon the top

of Pigling Bland

73



Pigling

although nearly

scratched to pieces


and the peppermints

inside his clothes

it was taken

down hill

unsteadily

with jerks

74



He looked up

blinking

and saw





the lid was opened

and Pigling

was lifted out

75




whatever

said Mr Piperson

turning Piglings

pockets inside out

76




into a corner





77



Pigling Bland


stool

and sat

on the edge of it


78



Mr Piperson

pulled off a boot

and threw it

againstthe wainscot

(wood paneling)


79



Pigling Bland

warmed

his hands

and eyed him

There was


ldquoShut uprdquo

said

Mr Piperson

80



Mr Piperson

pulled off

the other boot



81



Pigling Bland sat

on the very edge

of the coppy

(cut-off short)

stool

Be quiet

will ye

said

Mr Piperson

82



and made


Mr Piperson

fetched meal

from a chest

83





of the kitchen

was taking

a suppressed

(pushed down)


84



but

he was

too hungry

to be troubled

by noises

85



Mr Piperson



and a third

-after glaring

at Pigling--

86



87

he put away

with much

scuffling

and locked up

Pigling Bland

ate his supper





consulted

an almanac

(reference book)

and felt

Piglings ribs

88



Besides

the hens

had seen this pig

It was too late

in the season

for curing bacon

and he grudged

his meal

89



ldquoYou may sleep

on the rugrdquo

said Mr Peter

Thomas Piperson

Pigling Bland

slept like a top


remains of a flitch

(side of bacon)

and then looked

undecidedly

at Pigling

90



He looked

how much

meal was left

in the chest

and seemed

dissatisfied--


more porridge

(oatmeal)

the weather

was warmer

91




reply

a neighbor

who was giving


a lift

whistled

from the gate

Youll likely

be moving on

again

said he

to Pigling Bland

92



or

Ill come back

and skin ye

said Mr Piperson

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

to shut the door

behind him


93



But

he distrusted

Peter Thomas

It crossed Piglings

mind


for a lift too

he might

still have been

in timefor market

94



After finishing


Pigling had

a look round

the cottage


95



Pigling

ate the peel

and washed up

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

and far away--

He sang


Tom



97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling


next day


He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

105



Pigling Bland

sat by the fire

eating his supper

106

ll



All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

My name

is Pig-wig

Make me more

porridge please

107



Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

108




he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

here

asked

Pigling Bland

110



What for

Bacon hams

replied Pig-wig

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

111



I shall

after supper

said Pig-wig

decidedly


away

exclaimed

the horrified

Pigling

112



Pigling Bland made

more porridge

and watched her

shyly

113



You cant go

in the darkrdquo

said

Pigling Bland


got up


as though she were

going to start

114



I knowwe can see

this little

white house

from the hills

across the river

Pig-wig

looked anxious

Do you knowyour way

by day-light

115



To market


Which way

are YOU going

Mr Pig

116



I might take you

to the bridge

if you have

no objectionrdquo

117

said Pigling

much confused

and sitting

on the edge

of his coppy stool



and she asked

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

and pretend

to sleep

119



Only the corners

replied Pig-wig


with much interest

by the firelight

I thought

you had

eaten them

said Pigling

waking suddenly

120




peppermints

into her pocket

Sing something

she demanded

I wish you wouldnt

he might smell them

through the ceiling

said

the alarmed Pigling

121



Then I will sing

replied Pig-wig


iddy tidditty

I am sorry

I have tooth- ache

said Pigling

much dismayed

122




he sat

with his eyes

half shut

and watched her

I have forgotten

some of the words

123



Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124




umph

and the little pigs

said

wee wee

A funny old

mother pig

lived in a stye

and three little

piggies had she

125



She sang

successfully

through three

or four verses

only

at every verse

her head nodded

a little lower

126



And her

twinkly eyes

closed up--

127

F h h



For somehow they

couldnt say

umph umph

umph

and

they wouldnt say

for the rest


to the chirping

of the crickets

and to the snores


132



She was excited

and

half- frightened

But its dark

How can we

find our way

Early


dark and daylight

Pigling tied up

his little bundle

and woke up

Pig-wig

133



The cock

has crowed

we must start


they might shout

to Mr Piperson

134



Come away

Pig-wig

we can see when

we get used to it

Come

I can hear

them clucking

Pig-wig sat down


to cry

135



He opened

the house door

quietly

and shut it

after them



being peaceable

also

he remembered

the hamper

136



There was

no garden

the neighborhood

of Mr Pipersons

was

all scratched up

by fowls

137



They slipped away

hand in hand


to the road

138



Butall the tune

that he could play

was

`Over the hills

and far away

Tom Tom

the pipers son

stole a pig

and away he ran

Why

The sun rose

The sunshine crept

down the slopes

into the peaceful

green valleys

where little white

cottages nestled

said Pig-wig

143



I dont want



and commenced

to dance

singing

-- presently

144




inquired Pig-wig

Pigling Bland

grunted

Pigling Bland


145



and followed


Pig-wig ate

Pig-wig

under the wall

theres

a man plowing

147




towards

the county boundary

Pig-wig

crossed over

148



Suddenly

Pigling stopped

he heard wheels

149



The reins flapped

on the horses back


a newspaper

Slowly jogging

up the road

below themcame

a tradesmans cart

150



Take that

peppermint

out of your mouth

Pig-wig

we may

have to run

151



And in sight

of the bridgerdquo

said poor Pigling

nearly crying

ldquoDont say

Leave it to me

152

h



The grocer




shied and snorted

He began to walk

frightfully lame


153



He pulled the cart

crossways

and held down

his whip

154



Hallo



at him vacantly

Are you deaf

155



Are you going

to market

Pigling

nodded slowly

I thought

as much

It was yesterday

156

Sh



Show me your

Pigling stared



which had

picked up a stone

157



ldquoPapers

The grocer


158



The grocer

read them

but still seemed

dissatisfied

Pigling fumbled

in all his pockets

and handed up

the papers

159



Pig-wig opened

her mouth

and shut it again

Pigling coughed

asthmatically

This here pig

is a young lady

is her name

Alexander

160



Lost stolen

or strayed

10S reward

he looked

suspiciously

at Pig-wig

The grocer ran

his finger down


of his newspaper

161




and speak to him

said the grocer

gathering up

the reins

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

162



but surely

such a VERY

lame pig

could never run

He knew that pigs

are slippery

163



Not yet

Pig-wig

he will look back

164



Then he

looked over

at his

horses heels

The grocer did so

he saw

the two pigs

stock-still

in the middle

of the road

165



after he got

to the plowman

it was lame also


to knock out

166

Now

Pigling Bland

Never

said Pigling Bland

doubtfully

39



he dropped the pin

and tried


and the papers

got mixed up


with the pin

that had fastened

his pig paper

and when

Pigling slapped him

singing-

But

all the tune

43



They had nearly

run against him

round a corner

Pigling Bland

Alexanders nose

lengthened visibly

he had lost it

inquired

Pigling Bland

48



But


with the police

Pigling Bland

did not like

going on alone

and it was

beginning

to rain

49



To conclude

the adventures

of Alexander--

he gave

his brother

a peppermint

and watched him

out of sight

50




to the house

about tea time

followed

by a damp

subdued little pig

51



he did fairly well

when he had

settled down

how much time

had been wasted

by the frivolity

(silliness)

of Alexander

Pigling Bland

was shocked




54



He glanced

wistfully

(thoughtfully

longingly)

along the road

towards the hills

and then set off

55





all by himself

in a crowded

market

walking obediently

the other way

buttoning up

his coat

against the rain

56



to be stared at

pushed

and hired

by some big

strange farmer

was very

disagreeable--

57



I wish I could have

a little garden

and grow potatoes

said

Pigling Bland

58



he put

his other hand

in his other pocket


Alexanders

He put

his cold hand

in his pocket

and felt his paper

59



He took

a wrong turn

wrong turns

and

was quite lost

Pigling squealed

then ran back

frantically

hoping

to overtake

It grew dark

the wind whistled

creaked and groaned

and cried

Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

Pigling Bland

put down a plate

Pig-wig ate

Pig-wig

keep

under the wall

a man plowing

147




towards

the county boundary

Pig-wig

crossed over

148



Suddenly

Pigling stopped

he heard wheels

149



The reins flapped

on the horses back


a newspaper

Slowly jogging

up the road

below themcame

a tradesmans cart

150



Take that

peppermint

out of your mouth

Pig-wig

we may

have to run

151



And in sight

of the bridgerdquo

said poor Pigling

nearly crying

ldquoDont say

Leave it to me

152

h



The grocer




shied and snorted

He began to walk

frightfully lame


153



He pulled the cart

crossways

and held down

his whip

154



Hallo



at him vacantly

Are you deaf

155



Are you going

to market

Pigling

nodded slowly

I thought

as much

It was yesterday

156

Sh



Show me your

license

Pigling stared



which had

picked up a stone

157



ldquoPapers

The grocer


158



The grocer

read them

but still seemed

dissatisfied

Pigling fumbled

in all his pockets

and handed up

the papers

159



Pig-wig opened

her mouth

and shut it again

Pigling coughed

asthmatically

This here pig

is a young lady

is her name

Alexander

160



Lost stolen

or strayed

10S reward

he looked

suspiciously

at Pig-wig

The grocer ran

his finger down


of his newspaper

161




and speak to him

said the grocer

gathering up

the reins

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

162



but surely

such a VERY

lame pig

could never run

He knew that pigs

are slippery

163



Not yet

Pig-wig

he will look back

164



Then he

looked over

at his

horses heels

The grocer did so

he saw

the two pigs

stock-still

in the middle

of the road

165



after he got

to the plowman

it was lame also


to knock out

166

Now

said

Pigling Bland

Never

They raced

They came

But I wish

doubtfully

39



he dropped the pin

and tried

But

all the tune

42



Whats that

young Sirs

Stole a pig

said the policeman

43



They had nearly

run against him

round a corner

44



Pigling Bland

pulled outhis paper


handed over

something

scrumply--

45



Alexanders nose

lengthened visibly

he had lost it

I had one

indeed I had

Mr Policeman

Whats this

46



Its not likely

You may walkwith me

47



I see no reason

young Sir

your paper

is all right

Can I come back

too

inquired

Pigling Bland

48



But


with the police

Pigling Bland

did not like

going on alone

and it was

beginning

to rain

49



To conclude

the adventures

of Alexander--

he gave

his brother

a peppermint

and watched him

out of sight

50




to the house

about tea time

followed

by a damp

subdued little pig

51



he did fairly well

when he had

settled down

I disposed

of Alexander

in the

neighborhood

52



Over the Hills

4 miles

To Pettitoes Farm

3 miles

Pigling Bland




To Market-town

5 miles

53




how much time

had been wasted

by the frivolity

(silliness)

of Alexander

Pigling Bland

was shocked




54



He glanced

wistfully

(thoughtfully

longingly)

along the road

towards the hills

and then set off

55





all by himself

in a crowded

market

walking obediently

the other way

buttoning up

his coat

against the rain

56



to be stared at

pushed

and hired

by some big

strange farmer

was very

disagreeable--

57



I wish I could have

a little garden

and grow potatoes

said

Pigling Bland

58



he put

his other hand

in his other pocket


Alexanders

He put

his cold hand

in his pocket

and felt his paper

59



He took

a wrong turn

mdashseveral

wrong turns

and

was quite lost

Pigling squealed

then ran back

frantically

hoping

to overtake


60



It grew dark

the wind whistled

the trees

creaked and groaned

61




and cried

Wee wee wee

I cant find my way

home

62



the moon shone

through

the clouds

and Pigling Bland

saw a country

that was new to him

After

an hours wandering

he got out

of the wood

63



and beyond

--in misty distance

mdashlay the hills

The road crossed

a moor

below was

a wide valley

with a river


64




made his wayto it

and crept inside --

65



Bacon and eggs

bacon and eggs

clucked a hen

on a perch

I am afraid

it IS a hen house

but what can I do

said Pigling Bland

wet and cold

and quite tired out

66



To market

to market

Jiggetty-jig

clucked a broody

(wanting to set on

her eggs)


Trap trap trap

cackle

cackle

cackle

scolded


67



In the meantime

he and the hens

fell asleep


they were

all awakened

Pigling Bland

much alarmed

determined


68



The owner


came with a lantern

and a hamper

(basket with a lid)

to catch six fowls


69



He grabbed

the white hen

roosting next

to the cock

70



then

his eye fell upon

Pigling Bland

squeezed up

in a corner

He made


--

71



and dropped him

into the hamper



of the neck

(skin on the back

of the neck)

72



The hamper

containing

six fowls

and a young pig

was no light

weight

Thenhe dropped in

five more


upon the top

of Pigling Bland

73



Pigling

although nearly

scratched to pieces


and the peppermints

inside his clothes

it was taken

down hill

unsteadily

with jerks

74



He looked up

blinking

and saw





the lid was opened

and Pigling

was lifted out

75




whatever

said Mr Piperson

turning Piglings

pockets inside out

76




into a corner





77



Pigling Bland


stool

and sat

on the edge of it


78



Mr Piperson

pulled off a boot

and threw it

againstthe wainscot

(wood paneling)


79



Pigling Bland

warmed

his hands

and eyed him

There was


ldquoShut uprdquo

said

Mr Piperson

80



Mr Piperson

pulled off

the other boot



81



Pigling Bland sat

on the very edge

of the coppy

(cut-off short)

stool

Be quiet

will ye

said

Mr Piperson

82



and made


Mr Piperson

fetched meal

from a chest

83





of the kitchen

was taking

a suppressed

(pushed down)


84



but

he was

too hungry

to be troubled

by noises

85



Mr Piperson



and a third

-after glaring

at Pigling--

86



87

he put away

with much

scuffling

and locked up

Pigling Bland

ate his supper





consulted

an almanac

(reference book)

and felt

Piglings ribs

88



Besides

the hens

had seen this pig

It was too late

in the season

for curing bacon

and he grudged

his meal

89



ldquoYou may sleep

on the rugrdquo

said Mr Peter

Thomas Piperson

Pigling Bland

slept like a top


remains of a flitch

(side of bacon)

and then looked

undecidedly

at Pigling

90



He looked

how much

meal was left

in the chest

and seemed

dissatisfied--


more porridge

(oatmeal)

the weather

was warmer

91




reply

a neighbor

who was giving


a lift

whistled

from the gate

Youll likely

be moving on

again

said he

to Pigling Bland

92



or

Ill come back

and skin ye

said Mr Piperson

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

to shut the door

behind him


93



But

he distrusted

Peter Thomas

It crossed Piglings

mind


for a lift too

he might

still have been

in timefor market

94



After finishing


Pigling had

a look round

the cottage


95



Pigling

ate the peel

and washed up

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

and far away--

He sang


Tom



97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling


next day


He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

105



Pigling Bland

sat by the fire

eating his supper

106

ll



All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

My name

is Pig-wig

Make me more

porridge please

107



Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

108




he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

here

asked

Pigling Bland

110



What for

Bacon hams

replied Pig-wig

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

111



I shall

after supper

said Pig-wig

decidedly


away

exclaimed

the horrified

Pigling

112



Pigling Bland made

more porridge

and watched her

shyly

113



You cant go

in the darkrdquo

said

Pigling Bland


got up


as though she were

going to start

114



I knowwe can see

this little

white house

from the hills

across the river

Pig-wig

looked anxious

Do you knowyour way

by day-light

115



To market


Which way

are YOU going

Mr Pig

116



I might take you

to the bridge

if you have

no objectionrdquo

117

said Pigling

much confused

and sitting

on the edge

of his coppy stool



and she asked

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

and pretend

to sleep

119



Only the corners

replied Pig-wig


with much interest

by the firelight

I thought

you had

eaten them

said Pigling

waking suddenly

120




peppermints

into her pocket

Sing something

she demanded

I wish you wouldnt

he might smell them

through the ceiling

said

the alarmed Pigling

121



Then I will sing

replied Pig-wig


iddy tidditty

I am sorry

I have tooth- ache

said Pigling

much dismayed

122




he sat

with his eyes

half shut

and watched her

I have forgotten

some of the words

123



Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124




umph

and the little pigs

said

wee wee

A funny old

mother pig

lived in a stye

and three little

piggies had she

125



She sang

successfully

through three

or four verses

only

at every verse

her head nodded

a little lower

126



And her

twinkly eyes

closed up--

127

F h h



For somehow they

couldnt say

umph umph

umph

and

they wouldnt say

wee wee wee


grew peaky and lean

and lean

very well be

For somehow

for the rest


to the chirping

of the crickets

and to the snores


132



She was excited

and

half- frightened

But its dark

How can we

find our way

Early


dark and daylight

Pigling tied up

his little bundle

and woke up

Pig-wig

133



The cock

has crowed

we must start


they might shout

to Mr Piperson

134



Come away

Pig-wig

we can see when

we get used to it

Come

I can hear

them clucking

Pig-wig sat down


to cry

135



He opened

the house door

quietly

and shut it

after them



being peaceable

also

he remembered

the hamper

136



There was

no garden

the neighborhood

of Mr Pipersons

was

all scratched up

by fowls

137



They slipped away

hand in hand


to the road

138



Butall the tune

that he could play

was

`Over the hills

and far away

Tom Tom

the pipers son

stole a pig

and away he ran

Why

The sun rose

The sunshine crept

down the slopes

into the peaceful

green valleys

where little white

cottages nestled

143

and commenced

to dance

singing

144




inquired Pig-wig

Pigling Bland

and followed


Pig-wig ate

Suddenly

Pigling stopped

he heard wheels

The reins flapped

on the horses back


a newspaper

Slowly jogging

up the road

below themcame

a tradesmans cart

150



Take that

peppermint

out of your mouth

Pig-wig

And in sight

said poor Pigling

nearly crying

ldquoDont say

The grocer




shied and snorted

He began to walk

frightfully lame


153



He pulled the cart

crossways

and held down

his whip

154



Hallo



at him vacantly

Are you deaf

155



Are you going

Pigling

nodded slowly

I thought

as much

Pigling stared

picked up a stone

157



ldquoPapers

The grocer


158



The grocer

read them

but still seemed

dissatisfied

Pigling fumbled

in all his pockets

and handed up

the papers

159



Pig-wig opened

her mouth

and shut it again

Pigling coughed

asthmatically

This here pig

Lost stolen

or strayed

he looked

suspiciously

at Pig-wig

The grocer ran

his finger down


of his newspaper

161




and speak to him

said the grocer

gathering up

the reins

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

162



but surely

such a VERY

lame pig

could never run

He knew that pigs

are slippery

163



Not yet

Pig-wig

he will look back

164



Then he

looked over

at his

horses heels

The grocer did so

he saw

the two pigs

stock-still

in the middle

of the road

165



after he got

to the plowman

it was lame also


to knock out

They had nearly

Pigling Bland

But


with the police

Pigling Bland

did not like

beginning

to rain

49



To conclude

the adventures

of Alexander--

he gave

his brother

a peppermint

how much time

had been wasted

by the frivolity

(silliness)

of Alexander

Pigling Bland

was shocked




54



He glanced

wistfully

(thoughtfully

longingly)

along the road

towards the hills

and then set off

55





all by himself

in a crowded

market

walking obediently

the other way

buttoning up

his coat

against the rain

56



to be stared at

pushed

and hired

by some big

strange farmer

was very

disagreeable--

57



I wish I could have

a little garden

and grow potatoes

said

Pigling Bland

58



he put

his other hand

in his other pocket


Alexanders

He put

his cold hand

in his pocket

and felt his paper

59



He took

a wrong turn

mdashseveral

wrong turns

and

was quite lost

Pigling squealed

then ran back

frantically

hoping

to overtake


60



It grew dark

the wind whistled

the trees

creaked and groaned

61




and cried

Wee wee wee

I cant find my way

home

62



the moon shone

through

the clouds

and Pigling Bland

saw a country

that was new to him

After

an hours wandering

he got out

of the wood

63



and beyond

--in misty distance

mdashlay the hills

The road crossed

a moor

below was

a wide valley

with a river


64




made his wayto it

and crept inside --

Bacon and eggs

on a perch

I am afraid

said Pigling Bland

wet and cold

and quite tired out

66

Jiggetty-jig

clucked a broody

(wanting to set on

her eggs)


Trap trap trap

67



In the meantime

he and the hens

fell asleep


they were

all awakened

Pigling Bland

much alarmed

determined


68



The owner


came with a lantern

and a hamper

(basket with a lid)

to catch six fowls


69



He grabbed

the white hen

roosting next

to the cock

70



then

his eye fell upon

Pigling Bland

squeezed up

in a corner

He made

71



and dropped him

into the hamper

72



The hamper

Thenhe dropped in

five more

Pigling

although nearly

scratched to pieces

down hill

unsteadily

with jerks

He looked up

Mr Piperson

pulled off a boot

Pigling Bland

warmed

his hands

and eyed him

There was


ldquoShut uprdquo

said

Mr Piperson

80



Mr Piperson

pulled off

the other boot

Pigling Bland sat

on the very edge

of the coppy

(cut-off short)

Be quiet

said

Mr Piperson

82



and made


Mr Piperson

88



Besides

It was too late

in the season

89



ldquoYou may sleep

said Mr Peter

Thomas Piperson

Pigling Bland

slept like a top


remains of a flitch

(side of bacon)

and then looked

undecidedly

at Pigling

90



He looked

how much

meal was left

in the chest

and seemed

dissatisfied--


more porridge

(oatmeal)

the weather

was warmer

reply

a neighbor

who was giving


a lift

whistled

from the gate

Youll likely

be moving on

again

said he

to Pigling Bland

92



or

Ill come back

said Mr Piperson

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

to shut the door

behind him

But

he distrusted

Peter Thomas

It crossed Piglings

mind


for a lift too

he might

still have been

in timefor market

94



After finishing


Pigling had

a look round

the cottage


95



Pigling

ate the peel

and washed up

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

and far away--

He sang


Tom



97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped

After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling


next day


He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

105



Pigling Bland

sat by the fire

eating his supper

106

ll



All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

My name

is Pig-wig

Make me more

porridge please

107



Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

108




he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

here

asked

Pigling Bland

110



What for

Bacon hams

replied Pig-wig

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

111



I shall

after supper

said Pig-wig

decidedly


away

exclaimed

the horrified

Pigling

112



Pigling Bland made

more porridge

and watched her

shyly

113



You cant go

in the darkrdquo

said

Pigling Bland


got up


as though she were

going to start

114



I knowwe can see

this little

white house

from the hills

across the river

Pig-wig

looked anxious

Do you knowyour way

by day-light

115



To market


Which way

are YOU going

Mr Pig

116



I might take you

to the bridge

if you have

no objectionrdquo

117

said Pigling

much confused

and sitting

on the edge

of his coppy stool



and she asked

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

and pretend

to sleep

119



Only the corners

replied Pig-wig


with much interest

by the firelight

I thought

you had

eaten them

said Pigling

waking suddenly

120




peppermints

into her pocket

Sing something

she demanded

I wish you wouldnt

he might smell them

through the ceiling

said

the alarmed Pigling

121



Then I will sing

replied Pig-wig


iddy tidditty

I am sorry

I have tooth- ache

said Pigling

much dismayed

122




he sat

with his eyes

half shut

and watched her

I have forgotten

some of the words

123



Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124




umph

and the little pigs

said

wee wee

A funny old

mother pig

lived in a stye

and three little

piggies had she

125



She sang

successfully

through three

or four verses

only

at every verse

her head nodded

a little lower

126



And her

twinkly eyes

closed up--

127

F h h



For somehow they

couldnt say

umph umph

umph

and

they wouldnt say

grew peaky and lean

and lean

they might

very well be

For somehow

He was afraid

for the rest


to the chirping

of the crickets

and to the snores


132



She was excited

and

half- frightened

But its dark

How can we

find our way

Early


dark and daylight

Pigling tied up

his little bundle

and woke up

Pig-wig

133



The cock

has crowed

we must start


they might shout

to Mr Piperson

134



Come away

Pig-wig

we can see when

we get used to it

Come

I can hear

them clucking

Pig-wig sat down


to cry

135



He opened

the house door

quietly

and shut it

after them



being peaceable

also

he remembered

the hamper

136



There was

no garden

the neighborhood

of Mr Pipersons

was

all scratched up

by fowls

137



They slipped away

hand in hand


to the road

138



Butall the tune

that he could play

was

`Over the hills

and far away

Tom Tom

the pipers son

stole a pig

and away he ran

139



Why

do you want

to go to market

Pigling

inquired Pig-wig

Come Pig-wig

140



a dazzle of light


The sun rose


141



The sunshine crept

down the slopes

into the peaceful

green valleys

where little white

cottages nestled


142



Thats

Westmorland

said Pig-wig

143



I dont want



and commenced

to dance

singing

-- presently

144




inquired Pig-wig

Pigling Bland

grunted

Have a peppermint

said Pig-wig

Pigling Bland


145



and followed


Pig-wig ate


146



Pig-wig

keep

under the wall

theres

a man plowing

147




towards

the county boundary

Pig-wig

crossed over

148



Suddenly

Pigling stopped

he heard wheels

149



The reins flapped

on the horses back


a newspaper

Slowly jogging

up the road

below themcame

a tradesmans cart

150



Take that

peppermint

out of your mouth

Pig-wig

we may

have to run

151



And in sight

of the bridgerdquo

said poor Pigling

nearly crying

ldquoDont say

one word

Leave it to me

152

h



The grocer




shied and snorted

He began to walk

frightfully lame


153



He pulled the cart

crossways

and held down

his whip

154



Hallo



at him vacantly

Are you deaf

155



Are you going

to market

Pigling

nodded slowly

I thought

as much

It was yesterday

156

Sh



Show me your

license

Pigling stared



which had

picked up a stone

157



ldquoPapers

The grocer


158



The grocer

read them

but still seemed

dissatisfied

Pigling fumbled

in all his pockets

and handed up

the papers

159



Pig-wig opened

her mouth

and shut it again

Pigling coughed

asthmatically

This here pig

is a young lady

is her name

Alexander

160



Lost stolen

or strayed

10S reward

he looked

suspiciously

at Pig-wig

The grocer ran

his finger down


of his newspaper

161




and speak to him

said the grocer

gathering up

the reins

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

162



but surely

such a VERY

lame pig

could never run

He knew that pigs

are slippery

163



Not yet

Pig-wig

he will look back

164



Then he

looked over

at his

horses heels

The grocer did so

he saw

the two pigs

stock-still

in the middle

of the road

165



after he got

to the plowman

it was lame also


to knock out

166

Now

Pigling Bland

Never

Whats that

young Sirs

Stole a pig

said the policeman

43



They had nearly

run against him

round a corner

44



Pigling Bland

pulled outhis paper


handed over

something

scrumply--

45



Alexanders nose

lengthened visibly

he had lost it

I had one

indeed I had

Mr Policeman

Its not likely

You may walkwith me

47



I see no reason

young Sir

your paper

Can I come back

too

inquired

Pigling Bland

48



But


with the police

Pigling Bland

did not like

going on alone

and it was

beginning

to rain

49



To conclude

the adventures

of Alexander--

he gave

his brother

a peppermint

and watched him

out of sight

50




to the house

about tea time

followed

by a damp

subdued little pig

51



he did fairly well

when he had

settled down

I disposed

of Alexander

in the

neighborhood

52



Over the Hills

4 miles

To Pettitoes Farm

3 miles

Pigling Bland




To Market-town

5 miles

53




how much time

had been wasted

by the frivolity

(silliness)

of Alexander

Pigling Bland

was shocked




54



He glanced

wistfully

(thoughtfully

longingly)

along the road

towards the hills

and then set off

55





all by himself

in a crowded

market

walking obediently

the other way

buttoning up

his coat

against the rain

56



to be stared at

pushed

and hired

by some big

strange farmer

was very

disagreeable--

57



I wish I could have

a little garden

and grow potatoes

said

Pigling Bland

58



he put

his other hand

in his other pocket


Alexanders

He put

his cold hand

in his pocket

and felt his paper

59



He took

a wrong turn

mdashseveral

wrong turns

and

was quite lost

Pigling squealed

then ran back

frantically

hoping

to overtake


60



It grew dark

the wind whistled

the trees

creaked and groaned

61




and cried

Wee wee wee

I cant find my way

home

62



the moon shone

through

the clouds

and Pigling Bland

saw a country

that was new to him

After

an hours wandering

he got out

of the wood

63



and beyond

--in misty distance

mdashlay the hills

The road crossed

a moor

below was

a wide valley

with a river


64




made his wayto it

and crept inside --

65



Bacon and eggs

bacon and eggs

clucked a hen

on a perch

I am afraid

it IS a hen house

but what can I do

said Pigling Bland

wet and cold

and quite tired out

66



To market

to market

Jiggetty-jig

clucked a broody

(wanting to set on

her eggs)


Trap trap trap

cackle

cackle

cackle

scolded


67



In the meantime

he and the hens

fell asleep


they were

all awakened

Pigling Bland

much alarmed

determined


68



The owner


came with a lantern

and a hamper

(basket with a lid)

to catch six fowls


69



He grabbed

the white hen

roosting next

to the cock

70



then

his eye fell upon

Pigling Bland

squeezed up

in a corner

He made


--

71



and dropped him

into the hamper



of the neck

(skin on the back

of the neck)

72



The hamper

containing

six fowls

and a young pig

was no light

weight

Thenhe dropped in

five more


upon the top

of Pigling Bland

73



Pigling

although nearly

scratched to pieces


and the peppermints

inside his clothes

it was taken

down hill

unsteadily

with jerks

74



He looked up

blinking

and saw





the lid was opened

and Pigling

was lifted out

75




whatever

said Mr Piperson

turning Piglings

pockets inside out

76




into a corner





77



Pigling Bland


stool

and sat

on the edge of it


78



Mr Piperson

pulled off a boot

and threw it

againstthe wainscot

(wood paneling)


79



Pigling Bland

warmed

his hands

and eyed him

There was


ldquoShut uprdquo

said

Mr Piperson

80



Mr Piperson

pulled off

the other boot



81



Pigling Bland sat

on the very edge

of the coppy

(cut-off short)

stool

Be quiet

will ye

said

Mr Piperson

82



and made


Mr Piperson

fetched meal

from a chest

83





of the kitchen

was taking

a suppressed

(pushed down)


84



but

he was

too hungry

to be troubled

by noises

85



Mr Piperson



and a third

-after glaring

at Pigling--

86



87

he put away

with much

scuffling

and locked up

Pigling Bland

ate his supper





consulted

an almanac

(reference book)

and felt

Piglings ribs

88



Besides

the hens

had seen this pig

It was too late

in the season

for curing bacon

and he grudged

his meal

89



ldquoYou may sleep

on the rugrdquo

said Mr Peter

Thomas Piperson

Pigling Bland

slept like a top


remains of a flitch

(side of bacon)

and then looked

undecidedly

at Pigling

90



He looked

how much

meal was left

in the chest

and seemed

dissatisfied--


more porridge

(oatmeal)

the weather

was warmer

91




reply

a neighbor

who was giving


a lift

whistled

from the gate

Youll likely

be moving on

again

said he

to Pigling Bland

92



or

Ill come back

and skin ye

said Mr Piperson

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

to shut the door

behind him


93



But

he distrusted

Peter Thomas

It crossed Piglings

mind


for a lift too

he might

still have been

in timefor market

94



After finishing


Pigling had

a look round

the cottage


95



Pigling

ate the peel

and washed up

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

and far away--

He sang


Tom



97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling


next day


He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

105



Pigling Bland

sat by the fire

eating his supper

106

All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

107



Pigling Bland

stood smiling

beside him

108




he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

here

asked

Pigling Bland

110



What for

replied Pig-wig

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

111



I shall

said Pig-wig

decidedly

exclaimed

the horrified

Pigling

112



Pigling Bland made

more porridge

and watched her

shyly

113

said

Pigling Bland


got up


as though she were

going to start

114



I knowwe can see

white house

Pig-wig

looked anxious

so many questions

that it became

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

118



She

Pigling coughed

gathering up

the reins

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

162

He knew that pigs

are slippery

163



Not yet

Pig-wig

59



He took

a wrong turn

mdashseveral

wrong turns

and

was quite lost

Pigling squealed

then ran back

frantically

hoping

to overtake


60



It grew dark

the wind whistled

the trees

creaked and groaned

61




and cried

Wee wee wee

I cant find my way

home

62



the moon shone

through

the clouds

and Pigling Bland

saw a country

that was new to him

After

an hours wandering

he got out

of the wood

63



and beyond

--in misty distance

mdashlay the hills

The road crossed

a moor

below was

a wide valley

with a river


64




made his wayto it

and crept inside --

65



Bacon and eggs

clucked a hen

on a perch

I am afraid

it IS a hen house

but what can I do

said Pigling Bland

wet and cold

and quite tired out

66



To market

Jiggetty-jig

clucked a broody

(wanting to set on

her eggs)


Trap trap trap

cackle

scolded


67



In the meantime

he and the hens

fell asleep


they were

all awakened

Pigling Bland

much alarmed

determined


68



The owner


came with a lantern

and a hamper

(basket with a lid)

to catch six fowls


69



He grabbed

the white hen

roosting next

to the cock

70



then

his eye fell upon

Pigling Bland

squeezed up

in a corner

He made


--

71



and dropped him

into the hamper



of the neck

(skin on the back

of the neck)

72



The hamper

containing

six fowls

and a young pig

was no light

weight

Thenhe dropped in

five more


upon the top

of Pigling Bland

73



Pigling

although nearly

scratched to pieces


and the peppermints

inside his clothes

it was taken

down hill

unsteadily

with jerks

74



He looked up

blinking

and saw





the lid was opened

and Pigling

was lifted out

75




whatever

said Mr Piperson

turning Piglings

pockets inside out

76




into a corner





77



Pigling Bland


stool

and sat

on the edge of it


78



Mr Piperson

pulled off a boot

and threw it

againstthe wainscot

(wood paneling)


79



Pigling Bland

warmed

his hands

and eyed him

There was


ldquoShut uprdquo

said

Mr Piperson

80



Mr Piperson

pulled off

the other boot



81



Pigling Bland sat

on the very edge

of the coppy

(cut-off short)

stool

Be quiet

will ye

said

Mr Piperson

82



and made


Mr Piperson

fetched meal

from a chest

83





of the kitchen

was taking

a suppressed

(pushed down)


84



but

he was

too hungry

to be troubled

by noises

85



Mr Piperson



and a third

-after glaring

at Pigling--

86



87

he put away

with much

scuffling

and locked up

Pigling Bland

ate his supper





consulted

an almanac

(reference book)

and felt

Piglings ribs

88



Besides

the hens

had seen this pig

It was too late

in the season

for curing bacon

and he grudged

his meal

89



ldquoYou may sleep

on the rugrdquo

said Mr Peter

Thomas Piperson

Pigling Bland

slept like a top


remains of a flitch

(side of bacon)

and then looked

undecidedly

at Pigling

90



He looked

how much

meal was left

in the chest

and seemed

dissatisfied--


more porridge

(oatmeal)

the weather

was warmer

91




reply

a neighbor

who was giving


a lift

whistled

from the gate

Youll likely

be moving on

again

said he

to Pigling Bland

92



or

Ill come back

and skin ye

said Mr Piperson

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

to shut the door

behind him


93



But

he distrusted

Peter Thomas

It crossed Piglings

mind


for a lift too

he might

still have been

in timefor market

94



After finishing


Pigling had

a look round

the cottage


95



Pigling

ate the peel

and washed up

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

and far away--

He sang


Tom



97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling


next day


He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

105



Pigling Bland

sat by the fire

eating his supper

106

ll



All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

My name

is Pig-wig

Make me more

porridge please

107



Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

108




he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

here

asked

Pigling Bland

110



What for

Bacon hams

replied Pig-wig

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

111



I shall

after supper

said Pig-wig

decidedly


away

exclaimed

the horrified

Pigling

112



Pigling Bland made

more porridge

and watched her

shyly

113



You cant go

in the darkrdquo

said

Pigling Bland


got up


as though she were

going to start

114



I knowwe can see

this little

white house

from the hills

across the river

Pig-wig

looked anxious

Do you knowyour way

by day-light

115



To market


Which way

are YOU going

Mr Pig

116



I might take you

to the bridge

if you have

no objectionrdquo

117

said Pigling

much confused

and sitting

on the edge

of his coppy stool



and she asked

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

and pretend

to sleep

119



Only the corners

replied Pig-wig


with much interest

by the firelight

I thought

you had

eaten them

said Pigling

waking suddenly

120




peppermints

into her pocket

Sing something

she demanded

I wish you wouldnt

he might smell them

through the ceiling

said

the alarmed Pigling

121



Then I will sing

replied Pig-wig


iddy tidditty

I am sorry

I have tooth- ache

said Pigling

much dismayed

122




he sat

with his eyes

half shut

and watched her

I have forgotten

some of the words

123



Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124




umph

and the little pigs

said

wee wee

A funny old

mother pig

lived in a stye

and three little

piggies had she

125



She sang

successfully

through three

or four verses

only

at every verse

her head nodded

a little lower

126



And her

twinkly eyes

closed up--

127

F h h



For somehow they

couldnt say

they wouldnt say

for the rest


to the chirping

of the crickets

and to the snores


132



She was excited

and

half- frightened

But its dark

How can we

Early


dark and daylight

Pigling tied up

his little bundle

and woke up

Pig-wig

133



The cock

has crowed

we must start


they might shout

to Mr Piperson

134



Come away

Pig-wig

we can see when

we get used to it

Come

I can hear

them clucking

Pig-wig sat down


to cry

135



He opened

the house door

quietly

and shut it

after them



being peaceable

also

he remembered

the hamper

136



There was

no garden

the neighborhood

of Mr Pipersons

was

all scratched up

by fowls

137



They slipped away

hand in hand


to the road

138



Butall the tune

that he could play

was

`Over the hills

and far away

Tom Tom

the pipers son

Why

The sunshine crept

down the slopes

into the peaceful

green valleys

where little white

cottages nestled

143

and commenced

to dance

singing

-- presently

144




inquired Pig-wig

Pigling Bland

grunted

Pigling Bland


145



and followed


Pig-wig ate

Pig-wig

under the wall

theres

147




towards

the county boundary

Pig-wig

crossed over

148



Suddenly

Pigling stopped

he heard wheels

149



The reins flapped

on the horses back


a newspaper

Slowly jogging

up the road

below themcame

a tradesmans cart

150



Take that

peppermint

out of your mouth

Pig-wig

we may

have to run

151



And in sight

of the bridgerdquo

said poor Pigling

nearly crying

ldquoDont say

Leave it to me

152

h



The grocer




shied and snorted

He began to walk

frightfully lame


153



He pulled the cart

crossways

and held down

his whip

154



Hallo



at him vacantly

Are you deaf

155



Are you going

to market

Pigling

nodded slowly

I thought

as much

It was yesterday

156

Sh

Pigling stared



which had

picked up a stone

157



ldquoPapers

The grocer


158



The grocer

read them

but still seemed

dissatisfied

Pigling fumbled

in all his pockets

and handed up

the papers

159



Pig-wig opened

her mouth

and shut it again

Pigling coughed

asthmatically

This here pig

is a young lady

Alexander

160



Lost stolen

or strayed

10S reward

he looked

suspiciously

at Pig-wig

The grocer ran

his finger down


of his newspaper

161




and speak to him

said the grocer

gathering up

the reins

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

162



but surely

such a VERY

lame pig

could never run

He knew that pigs

are slippery

163



Not yet

Pig-wig

he will look back

164



Then he

looked over

at his

horses heels

The grocer did so

he saw

the two pigs

stock-still

in the middle

of the road

165



after he got

to the plowman

it was lame also


to knock out

166

Now

Pigling Bland

Never

Pigling Bland

48



But


with the police

Pigling Bland

did not like

going on alone

and it was

beginning

to rain

49



To conclude

the adventures

of Alexander--

he gave

his brother

a peppermint

by the frivolity

Pigling Bland

54



He glanced

wistfully

(thoughtfully

longingly)

along the road

towards the hills

55





all by himself

market

walking obediently

the other way

his coat

said poor Pigling

nearly crying

The grocer




shied and snorted

He began to walk

frightfully lame


153



He pulled the cart

crossways

and held down

his whip

154



Hallo



at him vacantly

Are you deaf

155



Are you going

to market

Pigling

nodded slowly

I thought

as much

Pigling stared

ldquoPapers

The grocer


158



The grocer

read them

but still seemed

dissatisfied

Pigling fumbled

in all his pockets

and handed up

the papers

159



Pig-wig opened

her mouth

and shut it again

Pigling coughed

asthmatically

This here pig

is a young lady

Alexander

160



Lost stolen

or strayed

he looked

suspiciously

at Pig-wig

The grocer ran

his finger down


of his newspaper

161




and speak to him

said the grocer

gathering up

the reins

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

162



but surely

such a VERY

lame pig

could never run

He knew that pigs

are slippery

163



Not yet

Pig-wig

he will look back

164



Then he

looked over

at his

horses heels

The grocer did so

he saw

the two pigs

stock-still

in the middle

of the road

165



after he got

to the plowman

it was lame also


to knock out

166

Now

Pigling Bland

Never

I see no reason

young Sir

your paper

Can I come back

inquired

Pigling Bland

48



But


with the police

Pigling Bland

did not like

going on alone

and it was

beginning

to rain

49



To conclude

the adventures

of Alexander--

he gave

his brother

a peppermint

and watched him

out of sight

50




to the house

about tea time

followed

by a damp

subdued little pig

51



he did fairly well

when he had

settled down

Pigling Bland




To Market-town

53




how much time

had been wasted

by the frivolity

(silliness)

of Alexander

Pigling Bland

was shocked




54



He glanced

wistfully

(thoughtfully

longingly)

along the road

towards the hills

and then set off

55





all by himself

in a crowded

market

walking obediently

the other way

buttoning up

his coat

against the rain

56



to be stared at

pushed

and hired

by some big

strange farmer

was very

disagreeable--

57



I wish I could have

a little garden

and grow potatoes

said

Pigling Bland

58



he put

his other hand

in his other pocket


Alexanders

He put

his cold hand

in his pocket

and felt his paper

59



He took

a wrong turn

mdashseveral

wrong turns

and

was quite lost

Pigling squealed

then ran back

frantically

hoping

to overtake


60



It grew dark

the wind whistled

the trees

creaked and groaned

61




and cried

Wee wee wee

I cant find my way

home

62



the moon shone

through

the clouds

and Pigling Bland

saw a country

that was new to him

After

an hours wandering

he got out

of the wood

63



and beyond

--in misty distance

mdashlay the hills

The road crossed

a moor

below was

a wide valley

with a river


64




made his wayto it

and crept inside --

65



Bacon and eggs

bacon and eggs

clucked a hen

on a perch

I am afraid

it IS a hen house

but what can I do

said Pigling Bland

wet and cold

and quite tired out

66



To market

to market

Jiggetty-jig

clucked a broody

(wanting to set on

her eggs)


Trap trap trap

cackle

scolded


67



In the meantime

he and the hens

fell asleep


they were

all awakened

Pigling Bland

much alarmed

determined


68



The owner


came with a lantern

and a hamper

(basket with a lid)

to catch six fowls


69



He grabbed

the white hen

roosting next

to the cock

70



then

his eye fell upon

Pigling Bland

squeezed up

in a corner

He made


--

71



and dropped him

into the hamper



of the neck

(skin on the back

of the neck)

72



The hamper

containing

six fowls

and a young pig

was no light

weight

Thenhe dropped in

five more


upon the top

of Pigling Bland

73



Pigling

although nearly

scratched to pieces


and the peppermints

inside his clothes

it was taken

down hill

unsteadily

with jerks

74



He looked up

blinking

and saw





the lid was opened

and Pigling

was lifted out

75




whatever

said Mr Piperson

turning Piglings

pockets inside out

76




into a corner





77



Pigling Bland


stool

and sat

on the edge of it


78



Mr Piperson

pulled off a boot

and threw it

againstthe wainscot

(wood paneling)


79



Pigling Bland

warmed

his hands

and eyed him

There was


ldquoShut uprdquo

said

Mr Piperson

80



Mr Piperson

pulled off

the other boot



81



Pigling Bland sat

on the very edge

of the coppy

(cut-off short)

stool

Be quiet

said

Mr Piperson

82



and made


Mr Piperson

fetched meal

from a chest

83





of the kitchen

was taking

a suppressed

(pushed down)


84



but

he was

too hungry

to be troubled

by noises

85



Mr Piperson



and a third

-after glaring

at Pigling--

86



87

he put away

with much

scuffling

and locked up

Pigling Bland

ate his supper





consulted

an almanac

(reference book)

and felt

Piglings ribs

88



Besides

the hens

had seen this pig

It was too late

in the season

for curing bacon

and he grudged

his meal

89



ldquoYou may sleep

on the rugrdquo

said Mr Peter

Thomas Piperson

Pigling Bland

slept like a top


remains of a flitch

(side of bacon)

and then looked

undecidedly

at Pigling

90



He looked

how much

meal was left

in the chest

and seemed

dissatisfied--


more porridge

(oatmeal)

the weather

was warmer

91




reply

a neighbor

who was giving


a lift

whistled

from the gate

Youll likely

be moving on

again

said he

to Pigling Bland

92



or

Ill come back

and skin ye

said Mr Piperson

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

to shut the door

behind him


93



But

he distrusted

Peter Thomas

It crossed Piglings

mind


for a lift too

he might

still have been

in timefor market

94



After finishing


Pigling had

a look round

the cottage


95



Pigling

ate the peel

and washed up

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

and far away--

He sang


Tom



97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling


next day


He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

105



Pigling Bland

sat by the fire

eating his supper

106

ll



All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

My name

is Pig-wig

Make me more

porridge please

107



Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

108




he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

here

asked

Pigling Bland

110



What for

Bacon hams

replied Pig-wig

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

111



I shall

after supper

said Pig-wig

decidedly


away

exclaimed

the horrified

Pigling

112



Pigling Bland made

more porridge

and watched her

shyly

113



You cant go

in the darkrdquo

said

Pigling Bland


got up


as though she were

going to start

114



I knowwe can see

this little

white house

from the hills

across the river

Pig-wig

looked anxious

Do you knowyour way

by day-light

115



To market


Which way

are YOU going

Mr Pig

116



I might take you

to the bridge

if you have

no objectionrdquo

117

said Pigling

much confused

and sitting

on the edge

of his coppy stool



and she asked

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

and pretend

to sleep

119



Only the corners

replied Pig-wig


with much interest

by the firelight

I thought

you had

eaten them

said Pigling

waking suddenly

120




peppermints

into her pocket

Sing something

she demanded

I wish you wouldnt

he might smell them

through the ceiling

said

the alarmed Pigling

121



Then I will sing

replied Pig-wig


iddy tidditty

I am sorry

I have tooth- ache

said Pigling

much dismayed

122




he sat

with his eyes

half shut

and watched her

I have forgotten

some of the words

123



Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124




umph

and the little pigs

said

wee wee

A funny old

mother pig

lived in a stye

and three little

piggies had she

125



She sang

successfully

through three

or four verses

only

at every verse

her head nodded

a little lower

126



And her

twinkly eyes

closed up--

127

F h h



For somehow they

couldnt say

umph umph

umph

and

they wouldnt say

for the rest


to the chirping

of the crickets

and to the snores


132



She was excited

and

half- frightened

But its dark

How can we

Early


dark and daylight

Pigling tied up

his little bundle

and woke up

Pig-wig

133



The cock

has crowed

we must start


they might shout

to Mr Piperson

134



Come away

Pig-wig

we can see when

we get used to it

Come

I can hear

them clucking

Pig-wig sat down


to cry

135



He opened

the house door

quietly

and shut it

after them



being peaceable

also

he remembered

the hamper

136



There was

no garden

the neighborhood

of Mr Pipersons

was

all scratched up

by fowls

137



They slipped away

hand in hand


to the road

138



Butall the tune

that he could play

was

`Over the hills

and she asked

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

to sleep

Then I will sing

I am sorry

said Pigling

much dismayed

122




he sat

with his eyes

half shut

and watched her

I have forgotten

some of the words

123



Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124




umph

said

A funny old

mother pig

lived in a stye

and three little

piggies had she

125



She sang

successfully

through three

only

at every verse

her head nodded

a little lower

And her

twinkly eyes

closed up--

132



She was excited

half- frightened

But its dark

How can we

Early


dark and daylight

Pigling tied up

his little bundle

and woke up

Pig-wig

133



The cock

has crowed

we must start


they might shout

to Mr Piperson

134



Come away

Pig-wig

we can see when

we get used to it

Come

I can hear

them clucking

Pig-wig sat down


to cry

135



He opened

the house door

quietly

and shut it

after them



being peaceable

also

he remembered

the hamper

136



There was

no garden

the neighborhood

of Mr Pipersons

was

all scratched up

by fowls

137



They slipped away

hand in hand


to the road

138



Butall the tune

that he could play

was

`Over the hills

Why

to dance

Suddenly

Pigling stopped

he heard wheels

149



The reins flapped

on the horses back


a newspaper

Slowly jogging

up the road

below themcame

a tradesmans cart

150



Take that

peppermint

out of your mouth

Pig-wig

151



And in sight

said poor Pigling

nearly crying

ldquoDont say

The grocer




shied and snorted

He began to walk

frightfully lame


153



He pulled the cart

crossways

and held down

his whip

154



Hallo



at him vacantly

Are you deaf

155



Are you going

Pigling

nodded slowly

I thought

Pigling stared

The grocer


158



The grocer

read them

but still seemed

dissatisfied

Pigling fumbled

in all his pockets

and handed up

the papers

Pig-wig opened

her mouth

and shut it again

Pigling coughed

asthmatically

This here pig

Lost stolen

he looked

suspiciously

at Pig-wig

The grocer ran

his finger down


of his newspaper

161




and speak to him

said the grocer

gathering up

the reins

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

162



but surely

such a VERY

lame pig

could never run

He knew that pigs

are slippery

163



Not yet

Pig-wig

he will look back

164



Then he

looked over

at his

horses heels

The grocer did so

he saw

the two pigs

stock-still

in the middle

of the road

165



after he got

to the plowman

it was lame also


to knock out

Pigling Bland

48



But


with the police

Pigling Bland

did not like

going on alone

and it was

beginning

to rain

49



To conclude

the adventures

of Alexander--

he gave

his brother

a peppermint

and watched him

out of sight

about tea time

followed

by a damp

subdued little pig

how much time

had been wasted

by the frivolity

(silliness)

of Alexander

Pigling Bland

was shocked




54



He glanced

wistfully

(thoughtfully

longingly)

along the road

towards the hills

and then set off

55





all by himself

in a crowded

market

walking obediently

the other way

buttoning up

his coat

against the rain

56



to be stared at

pushed

and hired

by some big

strange farmer

was very

disagreeable--

57



I wish I could have

a little garden

and grow potatoes

said

Pigling Bland

58



he put

his other hand

in his other pocket


Alexanders

He put

his cold hand

in his pocket

and felt his paper

59



He took

a wrong turn

mdashseveral

wrong turns

and

was quite lost

Pigling squealed

then ran back

frantically

hoping

to overtake


60



It grew dark

the wind whistled

the trees

creaked and groaned

61




and cried

Wee wee wee

I cant find my way

home

62



the moon shone

through

the clouds

and Pigling Bland

saw a country

that was new to him

After

an hours wandering

he got out

of the wood

63



and beyond

--in misty distance

mdashlay the hills

The road crossed

a moor

below was

a wide valley

with a river


64




made his wayto it

and crept inside --

65



Bacon and eggs

bacon and eggs

clucked a hen

on a perch

I am afraid

it IS a hen house

but what can I do

said Pigling Bland

wet and cold

and quite tired out

66



To market

Jiggetty-jig

clucked a broody

(wanting to set on

her eggs)


Trap trap trap

scolded


67



In the meantime

he and the hens

fell asleep


they were

all awakened

Pigling Bland

much alarmed

determined


68



The owner


came with a lantern

and a hamper

(basket with a lid)

to catch six fowls


69



He grabbed

the white hen

roosting next

to the cock

70



then

his eye fell upon

Pigling Bland

squeezed up

in a corner

He made


--

71



and dropped him

into the hamper



of the neck

(skin on the back

of the neck)

72



The hamper

containing

six fowls

and a young pig

was no light

weight

Thenhe dropped in

five more


upon the top

of Pigling Bland

73



Pigling

although nearly

scratched to pieces


and the peppermints

inside his clothes

it was taken

down hill

unsteadily

with jerks

74



He looked up

blinking

and saw





the lid was opened

and Pigling

was lifted out

75




whatever

said Mr Piperson

turning Piglings

pockets inside out

76




into a corner

Pigling Bland


stool

and sat

on the edge of it


78



Mr Piperson

pulled off a boot

and threw it

againstthe wainscot

79



Pigling Bland

warmed

his hands

and eyed him

There was


ldquoShut uprdquo

said

Mr Piperson

80



Mr Piperson

pulled off

the other boot



81



Pigling Bland sat

on the very edge

of the coppy

(cut-off short)

stool

Be quiet

said

Mr Piperson

82



and made


Mr Piperson

fetched meal

from a chest

83





of the kitchen

was taking

a suppressed

(pushed down)


84



but

he was

too hungry

to be troubled

by noises

85



Mr Piperson



and a third

-after glaring

at Pigling--

86



87

he put away

with much

scuffling

and locked up

Pigling Bland

ate his supper





consulted

an almanac

(reference book)

and felt

Piglings ribs

88



Besides

the hens

had seen this pig

It was too late

in the season

for curing bacon

and he grudged

his meal

89



ldquoYou may sleep

on the rugrdquo

said Mr Peter

Thomas Piperson

Pigling Bland

slept like a top


remains of a flitch

(side of bacon)

and then looked

undecidedly

at Pigling

90



He looked

how much

meal was left

in the chest

and seemed

dissatisfied--


more porridge

(oatmeal)

the weather

was warmer

91




reply

a neighbor

who was giving


a lift

whistled

from the gate

Youll likely

be moving on

again

said he

to Pigling Bland

92



or

Ill come back

and skin ye

said Mr Piperson

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

to shut the door

behind him


93



But

he distrusted

Peter Thomas

It crossed Piglings

mind


for a lift too

he might

still have been

in timefor market

94



After finishing


Pigling had

a look round

the cottage


95



Pigling

ate the peel

and washed up

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

and far away--

He sang


Tom



97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling


next day


He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

105



Pigling Bland

sat by the fire

eating his supper

106

ll



All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

My name

is Pig-wig

Make me more

porridge please

107



Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

108




he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

here

asked

Pigling Bland

110



What for

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

111



I shall

said Pig-wig

decidedly


away

exclaimed

the horrified

Pigling

112



Pigling Bland made

more porridge

and watched her

shyly

113

said

Pigling Bland


got up


as though she were

going to start

114



I knowwe can see

of the kitchen

was taking

a suppressed

(pushed down)


84



but

he was

too hungry

to be troubled

by noises

85



Mr Piperson



and a third

-after glaring

at Pigling--

86



87

he put away

with much

scuffling

and locked up

Pigling Bland

ate his supper





consulted

an almanac

(reference book)

and felt

Piglings ribs

88



Besides

the hens

had seen this pig

It was too late

in the season

for curing bacon

and he grudged

his meal

89



ldquoYou may sleep

on the rugrdquo

said Mr Peter

Thomas Piperson

Pigling Bland

slept like a top


remains of a flitch

(side of bacon)

and then looked

undecidedly

at Pigling

90



He looked

how much

meal was left

in the chest

and seemed

dissatisfied--


more porridge

(oatmeal)

the weather

was warmer

91




reply

a neighbor

who was giving


a lift

whistled

from the gate

Youll likely

be moving on

again

said he

to Pigling Bland

92



or

Ill come back

and skin ye

said Mr Piperson

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

to shut the door

behind him


93



But

he distrusted

Peter Thomas

It crossed Piglings

mind


for a lift too

he might

still have been

in timefor market

94



After finishing


Pigling had

a look round

the cottage


95



Pigling

ate the peel

and washed up

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

and far away--

He sang


Tom



97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling


next day


He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

105



Pigling Bland

sat by the fire

eating his supper

106

ll



All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

My name

is Pig-wig

Make me more

porridge please

107



Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

108




he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

here

asked

Pigling Bland

110



What for

Bacon hams

replied Pig-wig

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

111



I shall

after supper

said Pig-wig

decidedly


away

exclaimed

the horrified

Pigling

112



Pigling Bland made

more porridge

and watched her

shyly

113



You cant go

in the darkrdquo

said

Pigling Bland


got up


as though she were

going to start

114



I knowwe can see

this little

white house

from the hills

across the river

Pig-wig

looked anxious

Do you knowyour way

by day-light

115



To market


Which way

are YOU going

Mr Pig

116



I might take you

to the bridge

if you have

no objectionrdquo

117

said Pigling

much confused

and sitting

on the edge

of his coppy stool



and she asked

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

and pretend

to sleep

119



Only the corners

replied Pig-wig


with much interest

by the firelight

I thought

you had

eaten them

said Pigling

waking suddenly

120




peppermints

into her pocket

Sing something

she demanded

I wish you wouldnt

he might smell them

through the ceiling

said

the alarmed Pigling

121



Then I will sing

replied Pig-wig


iddy tidditty

I am sorry

I have tooth- ache

said Pigling

much dismayed

122




he sat

with his eyes

half shut

and watched her

I have forgotten

some of the words

123



Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124




umph

and the little pigs

said

wee wee

A funny old

mother pig

lived in a stye

and three little

piggies had she

125



She sang

successfully

through three

or four verses

only

at every verse

her head nodded

a little lower

126



And her

twinkly eyes

closed up--

127

F h h



For somehow they

couldnt say

umph umph

umph

and

they wouldnt say

for the rest


to the chirping

of the crickets

and to the snores


132



She was excited

and

half- frightened

But its dark

How can we

find our way

Early


dark and daylight

Pigling tied up

his little bundle

and woke up

Pig-wig

133



The cock

has crowed

we must start


they might shout

to Mr Piperson

134



Come away

Pig-wig

we can see when

we get used to it

Come

I can hear

them clucking

Pig-wig sat down


to cry

135



He opened

the house door

quietly

and shut it

after them



being peaceable

also

he remembered

the hamper

136



There was

no garden

the neighborhood

of Mr Pipersons

was

all scratched up

by fowls

137



They slipped away

hand in hand


to the road

138



Butall the tune

that he could play

was

`Over the hills

and far away

Tom Tom

the pipers son

stole a pig

and away he ran

139



Why

do you want

to go to market

Pigling

inquired Pig-wig

Come Pig-wig

a dazzle of light


The sun rose

The sunshine crept

down the slopes

into the peaceful

green valleys

where little white

cottages nestled


142



Thats

Westmorland

said Pig-wig

143



I dont want



and commenced

to dance

singing

-- presently

144




inquired Pig-wig

Pigling Bland

grunted

Have a peppermint

said Pig-wig

Pigling Bland


145



and followed


Pig-wig ate


146



Pig-wig

keep

under the wall

theres

a man plowing

147




towards

the county boundary

Pig-wig

crossed over

148



Suddenly

Pigling stopped

he heard wheels

149



The reins flapped

on the horses back


a newspaper

Slowly jogging

up the road

below themcame

a tradesmans cart

150



Take that

peppermint

out of your mouth

Pig-wig

we may

have to run

151



And in sight

said poor Pigling

nearly crying

ldquoDont say

Leave it to me

152

The grocer




shied and snorted

He began to walk

frightfully lame


153



He pulled the cart

crossways

and held down

his whip

154



Hallo



at him vacantly

Are you deaf

155



Are you going

to market

Pigling

nodded slowly

I thought

as much

It was yesterday

156

Show me your

Pigling stared



which had

picked up a stone

157



ldquoPapers

The grocer


158



The grocer

read them

but still seemed

dissatisfied

Pigling fumbled

in all his pockets

and handed up

the papers

159



Pig-wig opened

her mouth

and shut it again

Pigling coughed

asthmatically

This here pig

is a young lady

is her name

Alexander

160



Lost stolen

or strayed

10S reward

he looked

suspiciously

at Pig-wig

The grocer ran

his finger down


of his newspaper

161




and speak to him

said the grocer

gathering up

the reins

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

162



but surely

such a VERY

lame pig

could never run

He knew that pigs

are slippery

163



Not yet

Pig-wig

he will look back

164



Then he

looked over

at his

horses heels

The grocer did so

he saw

the two pigs

stock-still

in the middle

of the road

165



after he got

to the plowman

it was lame also


to knock out

I see no reason

inquired

Pigling Bland

48



But


with the police

Pigling Bland

did not like

going on alone

and it was

beginning

to rain

49



To conclude

the adventures

of Alexander--

he gave

his brother

a peppermint

and watched him

out of sight

50




to the house

about tea time

followed

by a damp

subdued little pig

51



he did fairly well

when he had

settled down

I disposed

Over the Hills

Pigling Bland




To Market-town

5 miles

53




how much time

had been wasted

by the frivolity

(silliness)

of Alexander

Pigling Bland

was shocked




54



He glanced

wistfully

(thoughtfully

longingly)

along the road

towards the hills

and then set off

55





all by himself

in a crowded

market

walking obediently

the other way

buttoning up

his coat

against the rain

56



to be stared at

pushed

and hired

by some big

strange farmer

was very

disagreeable--

57



I wish I could have

a little garden

and grow potatoes

said

Pigling Bland

58



he put

his other hand

in his other pocket


Alexanders

He put

his cold hand

in his pocket

and felt his paper

59



He took

a wrong turn

mdashseveral

wrong turns

and

was quite lost

Pigling squealed

then ran back

frantically

hoping

to overtake


60



It grew dark

the wind whistled

the trees

creaked and groaned

61




and cried

Wee wee wee

I cant find my way

home

62



the moon shone

through

the clouds

and Pigling Bland

saw a country

that was new to him

After

an hours wandering

he got out

of the wood

63



and beyond

--in misty distance

mdashlay the hills

The road crossed

a moor

below was

a wide valley

with a river


64




made his wayto it

and crept inside --

65



Bacon and eggs

bacon and eggs

clucked a hen

on a perch

I am afraid

it IS a hen house

but what can I do

said Pigling Bland

wet and cold

and quite tired out

66



To market

Jiggetty-jig

clucked a broody

(wanting to set on

her eggs)


Trap trap trap

67



In the meantime

he and the hens

fell asleep


they were

all awakened

Pigling Bland

much alarmed

determined


68



The owner


came with a lantern

and a hamper

(basket with a lid)

to catch six fowls


69



He grabbed

the white hen

then

his eye fell upon

squeezed up

in a corner

He made

Pigling

scratched to pieces

He looked up

wistfully

(thoughtfully

longingly)

along the road

towards the hills

and then set off

55





all by himself

in a crowded

market

walking obediently

the other way

buttoning up

his coat

against the rain

56



to be stared at

pushed

and hired

by some big

strange farmer

was very

disagreeable--

57



I wish I could have

a little garden

and grow potatoes

said

Pigling Bland

58



he put

his other hand

in his other pocket


Alexanders

He put

his cold hand

in his pocket

and felt his paper

59



He took

a wrong turn

mdashseveral

wrong turns

and

was quite lost

Pigling squealed

then ran back

frantically

hoping

to overtake


60



It grew dark

the wind whistled

the trees

creaked and groaned

61




and cried

Wee wee wee

I cant find my way

home

62



the moon shone

through

the clouds

and Pigling Bland

saw a country

that was new to him

After

an hours wandering

he got out

of the wood

63



and beyond

--in misty distance

mdashlay the hills

The road crossed

a moor

below was

a wide valley

with a river


64




made his wayto it

and crept inside --

65



Bacon and eggs

bacon and eggs

clucked a hen

on a perch

I am afraid

it IS a hen house

but what can I do

said Pigling Bland

wet and cold

and quite tired out

66



To market

Jiggetty-jig

clucked a broody

(wanting to set on

her eggs)


Trap trap trap

cackle

cackle

cackle

scolded


67



In the meantime

he and the hens

fell asleep


they were

all awakened

Pigling Bland

much alarmed

determined


68



The owner


came with a lantern

and a hamper

(basket with a lid)

to catch six fowls


69



He grabbed

the white hen

roosting next

to the cock

70



then

his eye fell upon

Pigling Bland

squeezed up

in a corner

He made


--

71



and dropped him

into the hamper



of the neck

(skin on the back

of the neck)

72



The hamper

containing

six fowls

and a young pig

was no light

weight

Thenhe dropped in

five more


upon the top

of Pigling Bland

73



Pigling

although nearly

scratched to pieces


and the peppermints

inside his clothes

it was taken

down hill

unsteadily

with jerks

74



He looked up

blinking

and saw





the lid was opened

and Pigling

was lifted out

75




whatever

said Mr Piperson

turning Piglings

pockets inside out

76




into a corner





77



Pigling Bland


stool

and sat

on the edge of it


78



Mr Piperson

pulled off a boot

and threw it

againstthe wainscot

(wood paneling)


79



Pigling Bland

warmed

his hands

and eyed him

There was


ldquoShut uprdquo

said

Mr Piperson

80



Mr Piperson

pulled off

the other boot



81



Pigling Bland sat

on the very edge

of the coppy

(cut-off short)

stool

Be quiet

will ye

said

Mr Piperson

82



and made


Mr Piperson

fetched meal

from a chest

83





of the kitchen

was taking

a suppressed

(pushed down)


84



but

he was

too hungry

to be troubled

by noises

85



Mr Piperson



and a third

-after glaring

at Pigling--

86



87

he put away

with much

scuffling

and locked up

Pigling Bland

ate his supper





consulted

an almanac

(reference book)

and felt

Piglings ribs

88



Besides

the hens

had seen this pig

It was too late

in the season

for curing bacon

and he grudged

his meal

89



ldquoYou may sleep

on the rugrdquo

said Mr Peter

Thomas Piperson

Pigling Bland

slept like a top


remains of a flitch

(side of bacon)

and then looked

undecidedly

at Pigling

90



He looked

how much

meal was left

in the chest

and seemed

dissatisfied--


more porridge

(oatmeal)

the weather

was warmer

91




reply

a neighbor

who was giving


a lift

whistled

from the gate

Youll likely

be moving on

again

said he

to Pigling Bland

92



or

Ill come back

and skin ye

said Mr Piperson

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

to shut the door

behind him


93



But

he distrusted

Peter Thomas

It crossed Piglings

mind


for a lift too

he might

still have been

in timefor market

94



After finishing


Pigling had

a look round

the cottage


95



Pigling

ate the peel

and washed up

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

and far away--

He sang


Tom



97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling


next day


He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

105



Pigling Bland

sat by the fire

eating his supper

106

ll



All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

My name

is Pig-wig

Make me more

porridge please

107



Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

108




he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

here

asked

Pigling Bland

110



What for

Bacon hams

replied Pig-wig

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

111



I shall

after supper

said Pig-wig

decidedly


away

exclaimed

the horrified

Pigling

112



Pigling Bland made

more porridge

and watched her

shyly

113



You cant go

in the darkrdquo

said

Pigling Bland


got up


as though she were

going to start

114



I knowwe can see

this little

white house

from the hills

across the river

Pig-wig

looked anxious

Do you knowyour way

by day-light

115



To market


Which way

are YOU going

Mr Pig

116



I might take you

to the bridge

if you have

no objectionrdquo

117

said Pigling

much confused

and sitting

on the edge

of his coppy stool



and she asked

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

and pretend

to sleep

119



Only the corners

replied Pig-wig


with much interest

by the firelight

I thought

you had

eaten them

said Pigling

waking suddenly

120




peppermints

into her pocket

Sing something

she demanded

I wish you wouldnt

he might smell them

through the ceiling

said

the alarmed Pigling

121



Then I will sing

replied Pig-wig


iddy tidditty

I am sorry

I have tooth- ache

said Pigling

much dismayed

122




he sat

with his eyes

half shut

and watched her

I have forgotten

some of the words

123



Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124




umph

and the little pigs

said

wee wee

A funny old

mother pig

lived in a stye

and three little

piggies had she

125



She sang

successfully

through three

or four verses

only

at every verse

her head nodded

a little lower

126



And her

twinkly eyes

closed up--

127

F h h



For somehow they

couldnt say

umph umph

umph

and

they wouldnt say

and lean

for the rest


to the chirping

of the crickets

and to the snores


132



She was excited

and

half- frightened

But its dark

How can we

Early


dark and daylight

Pigling tied up

his little bundle

and woke up

Pig-wig

133



The cock

has crowed

we must start


they might shout

to Mr Piperson

134



Come away

Pig-wig

we can see when

we get used to it

Come

I can hear

them clucking

Pig-wig sat down


to cry

135



He opened

the house door

quietly

and shut it

after them



being peaceable

also

he remembered

the hamper

136



There was

no garden

the neighborhood

of Mr Pipersons

was

all scratched up

by fowls

137



They slipped away

hand in hand


to the road

138



Butall the tune

that he could play

was

`Over the hills

and far away

Tom Tom

the pipers son

stole a pig

and away he ran

Why

The sun rose

The sunshine crept

down the slopes

into the peaceful

green valleys

where little white

cottages nestled

143



I dont want



and commenced

to dance

singing

-- presently

144




inquired Pig-wig

Pigling Bland

grunted

and followed


Pig-wig ate

Pig-wig

under the wall

theres

147




towards

Pig-wig

crossed over

148



Suddenly

Pigling stopped

he heard wheels

149



The reins flapped

on the horses back


a newspaper

Slowly jogging

up the road

below themcame

a tradesmans cart

150



Take that

peppermint

out of your mouth

Pig-wig

we may

have to run

151



And in sight

of the bridgerdquo

said poor Pigling

nearly crying

ldquoDont say

Leave it to me

152

h



The grocer




shied and snorted

He began to walk

frightfully lame


153



He pulled the cart

crossways

and held down

his whip

154



Hallo



at him vacantly

Are you deaf

155



Are you going

to market

Pigling

nodded slowly

I thought

as much

It was yesterday

156

Sh



Show me your

license

Pigling stared



which had

picked up a stone

157



ldquoPapers

The grocer


158



The grocer

read them

but still seemed

dissatisfied

Pigling fumbled

in all his pockets

and handed up

the papers

159



Pig-wig opened

her mouth

and shut it again

Pigling coughed

asthmatically

This here pig

is a young lady

is her name

Alexander

160



Lost stolen

or strayed

10S reward

he looked

suspiciously

at Pig-wig

The grocer ran

his finger down


of his newspaper

161




and speak to him

said the grocer

gathering up

the reins

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

162



but surely

such a VERY

lame pig

could never run

He knew that pigs

are slippery

163



Not yet

Pig-wig

he will look back

164



Then he

looked over

at his

horses heels

The grocer did so

he saw

the two pigs

stock-still

in the middle

of the road

165



after he got

to the plowman

it was lame also


to knock out

166

Now

Pigling Bland

To conclude

clapping time

grunty voice--

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

104




and told Pigling

He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

108




he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

asked

Pigling Bland

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

decidedly

the horrified

Pigling

Pigling Bland made

more porridge

Pigling Bland

as though she were

Pig-wig

looked anxious

said Pigling

on the edge

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

said Pigling

much dismayed

he sat

with his eyes

half shut

and watched her

I have forgotten

Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124

A funny old

Pigling tied up

The cock

134



Come away

Pig-wig

Pig-wig sat down


to cry

135



He opened

There was

Pigling Bland

slept like a top


remains of a flitch

(side of bacon)

and then looked

undecidedly

at Pigling

90



He looked

how much

meal was left

in the chest

and seemed

dissatisfied--


more porridge

(oatmeal)

the weather

was warmer

91




reply

a neighbor

who was giving


a lift

whistled

from the gate

Youll likely

be moving on

again

said he

to Pigling Bland

92



or

Ill come back

and skin ye

said Mr Piperson

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

to shut the door

behind him


93



But

he distrusted

Peter Thomas

It crossed Piglings

mind


for a lift too

he might

still have been

in timefor market

94



After finishing


Pigling had

a look round

the cottage


95



Pigling

ate the peel

and washed up

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

and far away--

He sang


Tom



97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling


next day


He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

105



Pigling Bland

sat by the fire

eating his supper

106

All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

My name

is Pig-wig

Make me more

porridge please

107



Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

108




he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

here

asked

Pigling Bland

110



What for

Bacon hams

replied Pig-wig

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

111



I shall

said Pig-wig

decidedly

exclaimed

the horrified

Pigling

112



Pigling Bland made

more porridge

and watched her

shyly

113



You cant go

said

Pigling Bland


got up


as though she were

going to start

114



I knowwe can see

this little

white house

from the hills

across the river

Pig-wig

looked anxious

Do you knowyour way

by day-light

115



To market


Which way

are YOU going

Mr Pig

116



I might take you

to the bridge

if you have

no objectionrdquo

117

said Pigling

much confused

and sitting

on the edge

of his coppy stool



and she asked

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

and pretend

to sleep

119



Only the corners

replied Pig-wig


with much interest

by the firelight

I thought

you had

eaten them

said Pigling

waking suddenly

I wish you wouldnt

through the ceiling

said

the alarmed Pigling

121



Then I will sing

replied Pig-wig


iddy tidditty

I am sorry

I have tooth- ache

said Pigling

much dismayed

122




he sat

with his eyes

half shut

and watched her

I have forgotten

some of the words

123



Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124




umph

and the little pigs

said

wee wee

A funny old

mother pig

lived in a stye

and three little

piggies had she

125



She sang

successfully

through three

or four verses

only

at every verse

her head nodded

a little lower

126



And her

twinkly eyes

closed up--

127

F h h

She was excited

half- frightened

But its dark

Early

Pigling tied up

his little bundle

and woke up

Pig-wig

133



The cock

has crowed

they might shout

to Mr Piperson

134



Come away

Pig-wig

we can see when

we get used to it

Come

I can hear

them clucking

Pig-wig sat down


to cry

135



He opened

the house door

quietly

and shut it

after them



being peaceable

also

he remembered

the hamper

136



There was

no garden

the neighborhood

of Mr Pipersons

was

all scratched up

by fowls

137



They slipped away

hand in hand


to the road

138



Butall the tune

that he could play

was

`Over the hills

Slowly jogging

up the road

a tradesmans cart

He pulled the cart

crossways

Pigling fumbled

Pigling coughed

asthmatically

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

162

such a VERY

He knew that pigs

are slippery

163



Not yet

Pig-wig

Then he

looked over

The grocer did so

Suddenly a little

Over the hills

Pigling Bland

put down a plate

After a long pause

Pigling Bland

said Pigling

on the edge

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

he sat

with his eyes

half shut

Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124

Pig-wig sat down

dissatisfied--

a neighbor

who was giving

whistled

from the gate

Youll likely

said he

to Pigling Bland

92

said Mr Piperson

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

to shut the door

behind him


93



But

he distrusted

Peter Thomas

It crossed Piglings

mind


for a lift too

94



After finishing


Pigling had

a look round

95



Pigling

ate the peel

and washed up

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

and far away--

He sang


Tom



97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling


next day


He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

105



Pigling Bland

sat by the fire

eating his supper

All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

My name

Make me more

107



Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

108




he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

asked

Pigling Bland

110



What for

Bacon hams

replied Pig-wig

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

111



I shall

said Pig-wig

decidedly

exclaimed

the horrified

Pigling

112



Pigling Bland made

more porridge

and watched her

shyly

113

said

Pigling Bland


got up


as though she were

going to start

114



I knowwe can see

this little

white house

from the hills

Pig-wig

looked anxious

Do you knowyour way

To market


Which way

said Pigling

much confused

and sitting

on the edge

of his coppy stool



and she asked

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

and pretend

to sleep

119



Only the corners

with much interest

by the firelight

I thought

the alarmed Pigling

121



Then I will sing

replied Pig-wig


iddy tidditty

I am sorry

said Pigling

much dismayed

122




he sat

with his eyes

half shut

and watched her

I have forgotten

some of the words

123



Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124




umph

said

wee wee

A funny old

mother pig

lived in a stye

and three little

piggies had she

125



She sang

successfully

through three

or four verses

only

at every verse

her head nodded

a little lower

126



And her

twinkly eyes

closed up--

Pigling tied up

The cock

134



Come away

Pig-wig

Come

Pig-wig sat down


to cry

135



He opened

the house door

quietly

being peaceable

also

he remembered

the hamper

There was

Suddenly a little

Pigling Bland

put down a plate

After a long pause

Pigling Bland

gave it to her

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

with

her mouth full

Pigling Bland

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

so many questions

that it became

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

118



She

became quiet

a smell

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

he sat

with his eyes

half shut

Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back

the pot to boil

the meal was not

He did lock

All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

My name

107



Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

108




he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

here

asked

Pigling Bland

110



What for

Bacon hams

replied Pig-wig

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

111

said Pig-wig

decidedly

exclaimed

the horrified

Pigling

112



Pigling Bland made

more porridge

and watched her

shyly

113

said

Pigling Bland


got up


as though she were

going to start

114



I knowwe can see

this little

white house

from the hills

Pig-wig

looked anxious

Do you knowyour way

115



To market


Which way

said Pigling

much confused

and sitting

on the edge

of his coppy stool



and she asked

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

and pretend

to sleep

119



Only the corners

replied Pig-wig


with much interest

by the firelight

I thought

said

the alarmed Pigling

121



Then I will sing

replied Pig-wig


iddy tidditty

I am sorry

I have tooth- ache

said Pigling

much dismayed

122




he sat

with his eyes

half shut

and watched her

I have forgotten

some of the words

123



Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124




umph

and the little pigs

said

wee wee

A funny old

mother pig

lived in a stye

and three little

piggies had she

125



She sang

successfully

through three

or four verses

only

at every verse

her head nodded

a little lower

And her

twinkly eyes

closed up--

She was excited

Early

Pigling tied up

his little bundle

and woke up

Pig-wig

The cock

to Mr Piperson

134



Come away

Pig-wig

we can see when

we get used to it

Come

them clucking

Pig-wig sat down


to cry

135



He opened

the house door

quietly

and shut it

after them



being peaceable

also

he remembered

the hamper

136



There was

no garden

the neighborhood

of Mr Pipersons

all scratched up

They slipped away

He knew that pigs

Not yet

Pig-wig

Suddenly a little

Pigling tied up

The cock

134



Come away

Pig-wig

Come

Pig-wig sat down


to cry

135



He opened

the house door

quietly

after them



being peaceable

also

he remembered

the hamper

There was

no garden

They slipped away

He pulled the cart

Pigling fumbled

Pigling coughed

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

such a VERY

He knew that pigs

are slippery

163



Not yet

Pig-wig

Suddenly a little

Pigling Bland

put down a plate

After a long pause

After another

Pigling pushed

dissatisfied--


more porridge

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

ate the peel

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

He sang

Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling


next day


He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

Pigling Bland

he hastily

gave it to her

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

Stolen

with

her mouth full

How did you come

Pigling Bland

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

Pigling

Pigling Bland made

more porridge

as though she were

going to start

I knowwe can see

said Pigling

on the edge

of his coppy stool



and she asked

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

to sleep

with much interest

I am sorry

said Pigling

much dismayed

he sat

with his eyes

half shut

I have forgotten

some of the words

Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

Pigling had

Pigling

ate the peel

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

- And

they all ran

to hear him play

He sang

Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling


next day


He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

Pigling Bland

All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

My name

Make me more

porridge please

107



Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

108




he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

here

asked

Pigling Bland

110



What for

Bacon hams

replied Pig-wig

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

111



I shall

said Pig-wig

decidedly


away

exclaimed

the horrified

Pigling

112



Pigling Bland made

more porridge

and watched her

shyly

113



You cant go

said

Pigling Bland


got up


as though she were

going to start

114



I knowwe can see

this little

white house

from the hills

Pig-wig

looked anxious

Do you knowyour way

by day-light

115



To market


Which way

are YOU going

Mr Pig

116



I might take you

to the bridge

if you have

no objectionrdquo

117

said Pigling

much confused

and sitting

on the edge

of his coppy stool



and she asked

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

and pretend

to sleep

119



Only the corners

replied Pig-wig


with much interest

by the firelight

I thought

you had

eaten them

said Pigling

waking suddenly

I wish you wouldnt

the alarmed Pigling

121



Then I will sing

replied Pig-wig


iddy tidditty

I am sorry

I have tooth- ache

said Pigling

much dismayed

122




he sat

with his eyes

half shut

and watched her

I have forgotten

some of the words

123



Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124




umph

A funny old

mother pig

She was excited

Pigling tied up

134



Come away

Pig-wig

Come

Pig-wig sat down


to cry

135



He opened

the house door

quietly

being peaceable

also

he remembered

the hamper

136



There was

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

He sang


Tom



97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling

He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

105



Pigling Bland

eating his supper

All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

My name

107



Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

108




he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

here

asked

Pigling Bland

110



What for

Bacon hams

replied Pig-wig

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

111



I shall

said Pig-wig

decidedly

exclaimed

the horrified

Pigling

112



Pigling Bland made

more porridge

and watched her

shyly

113

said

Pigling Bland


got up


as though she were

going to start

114



I knowwe can see

this little

white house

Pig-wig

looked anxious

Do you knowyour way

To market


Which way

said Pigling

much confused

and sitting

on the edge

of his coppy stool



and she asked

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

and pretend

to sleep

said Pigling

much dismayed

122




he sat

with his eyes

half shut

and watched her

I have forgotten

some of the words

123



Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124




umph

A funny old

mother pig

lived in a stye

piggies had she

125



She sang

She was excited

Pigling tied up

his little bundle

and woke up

Pig-wig

The cock

to Mr Piperson

134



Come away

Pig-wig

we can see when

we get used to it

Come

Pig-wig sat down


to cry

135



He opened

the house door

quietly

and shut it

after them



being peaceable

also

he remembered

the hamper

136



There was

a tradesmans cart

The grocer




shied and snorted

He began to walk

He pulled the cart

crossways

Hallo

The grocer

read them

but still seemed

dissatisfied

Pigling fumbled

in all his pockets

and handed up

the papers

Pig-wig opened

and shut it again

Pigling coughed

asthmatically

This here pig

he looked

suspiciously

at Pig-wig

The grocer ran

his finger down

said the grocer

gathering up

the reins

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

162



but surely

such a VERY

lame pig

could never run

He knew that pigs

are slippery

163



Not yet

Pig-wig

he will look back

Then he

looked over

at his

The grocer did so

it was lame also

Pigling tied up

134



Come away

Pig-wig

Pig-wig sat down


to cry

He opened

Pigling fumbled

Pigling coughed

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

162



but surely

such a VERY

He knew that pigs

are slippery

163



Not yet

Pig-wig

Then he

looked over

Besides

had seen this pig

It was too late

his meal

ldquoYou may sleep

Thomas Piperson

Pigling Bland

slept like a top


remains of a flitch

and then looked

undecidedly

at Pigling

90



He looked

how much

meal was left

in the chest

and seemed

dissatisfied--


more porridge

(oatmeal)

the weather

was warmer

a neighbor

who was giving


a lift

whistled

from the gate

Youll likely

said he

to Pigling Bland

92



or

said Mr Piperson

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

to shut the door

behind him


93



But

he distrusted

Peter Thomas

It crossed Piglings

mind


for a lift too

he might

still have been

in timefor market

94



After finishing


Pigling had

a look round

the cottage


95



Pigling

ate the peel

and washed up

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

and far away--

He sang


Tom



97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling


next day


He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

108




he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

asked

Pigling Bland

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

decidedly

on the edge

and she asked

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

and pretend

to sleep

119

with much interest

the alarmed Pigling

Then I will sing

I am sorry

said Pigling

much dismayed

122




he sat

with his eyes

half shut

and watched her

I have forgotten

some of the words

123



Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124

Pigling Bland

slept like a top

dissatisfied--


more porridge

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

It crossed Piglings

mind


for a lift too

After finishing


Pigling had

a look round

Pigling

ate the peel

and washed up

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

He sang

97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling

He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

105



Pigling Bland

sat by the fire

eating his supper

All at once

at his elbow

a little voice

spokemdash

My name

Make me more

porridge please

107



Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

stood smiling

beside him

108




he hastily

gave it to her

and fled

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

109



Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

here

asked

Pigling Bland

110



What for

Bacon hams

replied Pig-wig

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

111



I shall

said Pig-wig

decidedly


away

exclaimed

the horrified

Pigling

112



Pigling Bland made

more porridge

and watched her

shyly

113



You cant go

said

Pigling Bland


got up


as though she were

going to start

114



I knowwe can see

this little

white house

from the hills

across the river

Pig-wig

looked anxious

Do you knowyour way

by day-light

115



To market


Which way

are YOU going

Mr Pig

116



I might take you

to the bridge

if you have

no objectionrdquo

117

said Pigling

much confused

and sitting

on the edge

of his coppy stool



and she asked

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

and pretend

to sleep

119



Only the corners

replied Pig-wig


with much interest

by the firelight

I thought

you had

eaten them

said Pigling

waking suddenly

120




peppermints

into her pocket

Sing something

she demanded

I wish you wouldnt

he might smell them

through the ceiling

said

the alarmed Pigling

121



Then I will sing

replied Pig-wig


iddy tidditty

I am sorry

I have tooth- ache

said Pigling

much dismayed

122




he sat

with his eyes

half shut

and watched her

I have forgotten

some of the words

123



Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124




umph

and the little pigs

said

wee wee

A funny old

mother pig

lived in a stye

and three little

piggies had she

125



She sang

successfully

through three

or four verses

only

at every verse

her head nodded

a little lower

126



And her

twinkly eyes

closed up--

For somehow they

She was excited

half- frightened

But its dark

Early

Pigling tied up

his little bundle

and woke up

Pig-wig

133



The cock

to Mr Piperson

134



Come away

Pig-wig

we can see when

we get used to it

Come

them clucking

Pig-wig sat down


to cry

135



He opened

the house door

quietly

and shut it

after them



being peaceable

also

he remembered

the hamper

136



There was

no garden

the neighborhood

of Mr Pipersons

was

all scratched up

137



They slipped away

hand in hand


to the road

Butall the tune

that he could play

was

`Over the hills

a tradesmans cart

The grocer




shied and snorted

He began to walk

frightfully lame


153



He pulled the cart

crossways

and held down

his whip

154



Hallo

nodded slowly

The grocer

read them

dissatisfied

Pigling fumbled

in all his pockets

Pigling coughed

asthmatically

gathering up

the reins

Then he stood up

in the trap

for the plowman

He knew that pigs

Not yet

Pigling tied up

134



Come away

Pig-wig

Pig-wig sat down

He opened

Pigling fumbled

Pigling coughed

asthmatically

suspiciously

said the grocer

gathering up

the reins

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

162



but surely

such a VERY

lame pig

He knew that pigs

are slippery

163



Not yet

Pig-wig

he will look back

Then he

looked over

at his

The grocer did so

it was lame also

Pigling Bland

at Pigling

He looked

dissatisfied--


more porridge

a neighbor

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

After finishing


Pigling had

a look round

Pigling

ate the peel

and washed up

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

He sang

97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

Mr Piperson


enjoining Pigling

After finishing


Pigling had

a look round

the cottage


95



Pigling

ate the peel

the porridge plates

in the bucket

He found some

potato peelings

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

96



- And

they all ran

to hear him play

Over the hills

and far away--

He sang


Tom



97



Suddenly a little

smothered voice

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

and a great way off

The wind shall blow

my top knot off

98



Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

102



WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

the fire

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back




and put on

the pot to boil

the meal was not

get-at-able

104




and told Pigling

He did lock

the cupboard door


shutting it

All at once

Pigling Bland



Berkshire pig

gave it to her

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

a double chin

and a short

turned up nose

Stolen

replied Pig-wig

with

her mouth full

How did you come

asked

Pigling Bland

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

said Pigling

much confused

and sitting

on the edge

of his coppy stool



and she asked

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

and pretend

to sleep

119

with his eyes

half shut

Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124

A funny old

Pig-wig

in a bucket

in the back kitchen

they all ran

Suddenly a little

chimed in ndash

Over the hills

Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

WhenMr Piperson

he found Pigling

sitting before

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back

Pigling Bland

with

Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

She

became quiet

a smell

Pigling fumbled

Pigling coughed

asthmatically

gathering up

the reins

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

162

such a VERY

could never run

He knew that pigs

are slippery

163



Not yet

Pig-wig

Then he

looked over

at his

The grocer did so

it was lame also

Over the hills

Pigling Bland

put down a plate

which he was wiping

and listened

99



After a long pause


and peeped



100



After another pause

Pigling approached

the door



101



It was sucked in

immediately

In the course

of the day

Pigling pushed in


It was quite quiet

After another

long pause

Pigling pushed

a peppermint

under the door

WhenMr Piperson

returned

he found Pigling

sitting before

103



Mr Piperson

was very affable

he slapped Pigling

on the back

Pigling Bland

he hastily

gave it to her

to the meal chest-


screwed up eyes

with

her mouth full

How did you come

asked

Pigling Bland

replied Pig-wig

cheerfully

Pigling helped

himself to meal

without scruple

the horrified

Pigling

Pigling Bland made

Pigling Bland

Pig-wig

looked anxious

Do you knowyour way

said Pigling

much confused

on the edge

of his coppy stool

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

and there was

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

to sleep

he sat

with his eyes

half shut

Shewagged her head

and rocked about

clapping time

and singing

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

124

Pigling coughed

gathering up

the reins

Then he stood up

in the trap

and whistled

for the plowman

162

such a VERY

lame pig

could never run

He knew that pigs

are slippery

163



Not yet

Pig-wig

he will look back

Then he

looked over

at his

The grocer did so

the two pigs

it was lame also

Mr Piperson

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

She

became quiet

a smell

Pigling Bland

Pigling Bland

so many questions

that it became

embarrassing

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

a smell

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

grunty voice--

Pigling Bland

so many questions

that it became

to Pigling Bland

Pig-wigs

gratitude was such

118



She

became quiet

a smell

of peppermint

He was obliged

to shut his eyes

to sleep

Shewagged her head

in a sweet little

grunty voice--

Pig-wig

Pig-wig sat down


to cry

He opened
