THE TRVE HISTORY OF LITTLE 80-PEEP.

Comprising theYncidtnta Oftlci:Ffintuttilm 6.
Little 80-Peep ivas a pretty Shepberdesti, residing In that
beautiful place called Arcadia. She was a Very ehoti girl, hht
had one fault; and that was, sh- would often fall asleep in
the daytime. when she ought to have been tending her sheep.
Inter godmother, whO was a Fairy, was very angry with her,
and tried to correct her, .but in vain; till one day, a wolf,
Who lived is a' cavern near this beautiful place, having fallen
in love witkl)o,Pkep, and been reiected by her, out pfrevenge
ttP94,Tcfl.tA IStc.il her sheep cut off therp ein
up on a tree todry: To. eep, as usual, having fallen as ten,
Tendered the stealing of her sheep a very easy matter for the
wolf siiid his companions. While she was sleeping, her god-
bibther showed to her, in a dream, the consequence of
lateness; and then there appeared to her a group of beautiful
shepherdesses, who were living and playing, and dancing in
a grove of laburnums, and were happy as the days were long,
because in their time they had never bern idle. When Bo-
Peep woke out of this dream she found her sheep had been
taken away, so she set out determined to find them ;
when going along what should she see but the tails of all
her poor cheep hanging up, side by Side, on a tree to dry.
She then met with a cowherd, to whom the wolf had given
the charge of her sheep, aid with whom she drove a bargain
for getting them bask, tails and all. When she had accol-n
plished this,. she. returned home. With them, where, assisted
by case kindly shepherdesses, she contrived to tack each of
the, tails Of her poor sheep in its plate again. Her lover,
Colin, a. Yptime shepherd, undertook to Watch the flock all
fight, Ills 80-Peep trttS tired and Wanted to go to bed. The
sheep being all carefully lint into the fold, and watched by
Colin, 80-Peep prepared to retire for the night ; but when
ishe had laid down, the wicked wolf appeared to carry her off
by foree—driigged her out of herbed, and, with fbe aid of
hit aompaniolis. conquered Cohn, notwithstanding 80-Peep!s
fa:rail:We black Ram, and her dog Lion, came to defend their
t retit. In this extremity, 'she called upon her godmotherelp her, who immediately appeared in all her fair glory;
hhanged Cohn into Harlequin, 80-Peep into Columbine, the
wicked Wolf into Pantaloon, his Cowherd into Clown. She
then told- 80-Peep,. that if, after twelve months, she would
*correct herself of goirt to sleep in the day-time, she 'would
consent to her marriage with Cohn. It is needless to add,
Little 80-Peep did correct herself—was married to Colin, and
afterwards lived like the other shepherdesses= as happy as the
days were long.
