"The farmer told Tom

to put an iron hoop

around Hoggy-woggy's head

to keep it from falling to pieces." "Poor Hoggy-woggy!"

cried Nanny-goat,

and she ran to tell Dolly-cow. Nanny-goat found Dolly-cow

lying on the ground

in the shade of an oak tree

and chewing her cud.

"Good day, Dolly-cow," said Nanny-goat. "Good day, Nanny-goat," said Dolly-cow. "It is very warm."

"Yes," said Nanny-goat, "it is very warm and everything is very dry.

The farmer told Tom, the hired man,

to put an iron hoop

around Hoggy-woggy's head. If he doesn't, it is so dry

it will fall all to pieces." "Poor Hoggy-woggy!" cried Dolly-cow, and she got up to go to tell Willy-calf.

Dolly-cow found Willy-calf in the stall. "Good day, Willy-calf," said Dolly-cow. "Good day, Dolly-cow," said Willy-calf. "It is very warm."

"Yes," said Dolly-cow, "it is very warm and everything is very dry.

The farmer told Tom

to put an iron hoop

around Hoggy-woggy's head. If he doesn't, it is so dry

it will fall all to pieces."

"Poor Hoggy-woggy!" cried Willy-calf,

and he ran to tell him

how sorry he was that Tom

must put an iron hoop

around his head to keep it

from falling to pieces.

Willy-calf found Hoggy-woggy

in the barnyard.

"Oh, Hoggy-woggy!" cried Willy-calf. "Have you heard that the farmer told Tom, the hired man,

to put an iron hoop

around your head?

If he doesn't, it is so dry

your head will fall all to pieces." "Me! Me!" Hoggy-woggy squealed. Then he grunted and squealed,

and he squealed and grunted. Willy-calf ran back to tell Dolly-cow how bad Hoggy-woggy felt

because the farmer was going

to have an iron hoop

put around his head. Poor Hoggy-woggy squealed

so loudly that Gander-lander

came running into the barnyard to see what was the matter. "What is the matter with you?"

cried Gander-lander.
