So they were silent again for a day or two. "Oh, dear!" cried the first, "I have had some water. I never knew till it was inside me. I'm growing! I'm growing! Good-by."
Strana 186 - Tell me, bright boy, tell me, my golden lad, Whither away so frolic ? why so glad \ What all thy wealth in council \ all thy state \ Are husks so dear \ troth, 'tis a mighty rate.
Strana 143 - No man so great in all his regioun, And like his father of face and of stature, And false of love, it came him of nature, As doth the foxe Renarde, the foxes sonne, Of kinde he coulde his...
