Little pig, little pig, let me come in." To which the pig replied:

No, no, by the hair of my chinny, chin, chin."

The wolf then answered: "Then I'll huff, and I'll puff,

and I'll blow your house in."

So he huffed, and he puffed, and he blew the house in, and ate up the poor little pig. The second little pig met a man with a bundle

of furze, and said: "Please,

man, give me that furze to build a house."

Which the man did, and the pig built his house with it.

Then along came the wolf, and said: "Little pig, little pig, let me come in."

No, no, by the hair of my chinny, chin, chin," said the pig.

"Then I'll puff, and I'll huff, and I'll blow your house in."

So he huffed, and he puffed, and he blew the house in, and ate up the poor little pig.

The third little pig met a man with a load of bricks, and he said: "Please, man, give me those bricks to build a house with."

So the man gave him the bricks, and he built his house with them, and

the wolf came as he had come to the other little pigs, and said:

66

Little pig, little pig, let me come in.” "No, no, by the hair of my chinny, chin, chin.”

"Then I'll huff, and I'll puff, and I'll blow your house in."

And he huffed and he puffed, and he puffed and he huffed, and he huffed and he puffed, but he could not blow down the house.

So he said: "Little pig, I know where there is a nice field of turnips." Where?" said the pig.

66

66

Oh, in Smith's Home-field; and if you will be ready to-morrow morning at six o'clock, I will call for you, and we will go together and get some for dinner."

"Very well," said the pig; "I will be ready."

But the little pig got up at five and got the turnips before the wolf came (as he did about six) and said: "Little pig, are you ready?'

The little pig said: "Ready! I've been and come back again, and got a nice potful for dinner."

The wolf felt very angry at this, but thought that he would get even with the little pig somehow or other.

So he said: "Little pig, I know where there is a nice apple tree.”

"Where?" asked the pig.

66

Oh, down at Merry Garden," replied the wolf; "and if you will not deceive me, I will come for you at five o'clock to-morrow and get some apples."

Well, the little pig got up next morning at four o'clock and went for the apples, hoping to get back before the wolf came; but he had far to go,

and had to climb the tree, so that just as he was coming down from it he saw the wolf coming, which frightened him very much.

66

When the wolf came up he said:

Little pig, are you here before me? Are they nice apples?"

"Yes," said the pig. "Shall I throw you down one?" And he threw it so far that while the wolf was gone to pick it up the little pig jumped down and ran home. The next day the wolf came again, and said to the little pig:

"Little pig, there is a fair at Shanklin this afternoon. Will you go?"

"Oh, yes!" said the pig; “I will go. What time shall you be ready?"

"At three," said the wolf. So the pig went before the time, as usual, and got to the fair and bought a butter churn. He was going home with it
