THE TRUE HISTORY OF LITTLE 80-PEEP.
Comprising the Incidents of the Pantomime.
Little 80-Peep was a pretty Shepherdess, residing in that
beautiful place called Arcadia. She was a very good girl, but
had one fault; and that was,. she would often fall asleep in
the dav-time, when she ought to have been teriding.her sheep,
Net 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 in a. cavern near this beautiful place, having Mien
in love with 80-Peep and been rejected by her, out of revenge
resolved to steal her sheep, cut off their tails and hang them
up on a tree to dry. 80-Peep, as usual, having fallen ashien,
,rendered the stealing of her sheep a very easy matter for the
*'olf and lllSebtripantons. While she was sleeping, her god-
math& filidvited .16; her, In a drearil, the eonSequenee t o f
laiinesS arid the there dope ted tq her a. grOttp Of bettiitiful
Shepherdeseek glib *ere livirig, anti playing, and dancing in
ffrOie of labtirniims, and were happy as the days were' long,
hecatioe in their time they had never been idle. When 80,
Peep woke out of this dream she found her sheep had begn
taken away, so she set out determined to find 'them ;
when going along what should she see but the .tails all
her poor sheep 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, and with whow she drove a, bargain
for getting them back, tails and all. When she had atom-
Wished this, she returned home with them, where, assisted
by some kindly shepherdesses, she contrived to tack each of
the tails of her poor' sheep in its place again. Her lover,
Colin, a young shennerd, undertook to watch the flock all
t, as 80-Peep was tired and wanted to go to bed. Thp
sheep being all carefully put into the fold, and watched by
Colin, 80-Peep prepared to retire for the night ;, but when
she had laid down, the wicked wolf appeared to carry her off
h' force—dragged her out of her bed, and, with the'aid of
hit companions, conquered Colin, notwithstanding 80-Peep's
favourite black Ram, and her dog Lion, came to defend their
Mistress. In this extremity, she called upon her godthother"
to help her, who immediately appeared in all , her fair glory;
changed Colin into Thrlequin, 80-Peep into Columbine, the
wicked Wolf into Pantaloon, bis Cowherd into Clown. She
then told Do-peep, that if, after twelve months, she votild
correct herself of going to 'sleep in the day-time, she Would'
consent to her marriage with Colin. It is needless to add,
Little Bo-Peep slid correct herself—was married to Colin, and "
afterwards lived like the other shepherdesses—as happy as the
days Were long.
