tatikpo-reek. Was a pretty Shepherdess, residing in that
biaiiti 1 place called Arcadia. She was a very eood girl, but
had one fault; and that was, she would often fall asleep in
the day-time, when she ought to have been tending her sheep.
Aer 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 fallen
in love with 80-Peep end 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 asleep,
rendered the stealing of her sheep a very easy matter for the
wolf and his companions. While she was sleeping, her god-
mother showed to her, in a dream, the consequence of
laziness; 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 been idle. When 110-
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 sheep hanging up, tide by side, on a tree to dry.
She then met with a cowherd, to whoirn the Wolf had given
the charge of her sheep, aad With *Helm She drove a bargain
far getting them bark; tank and all. When she had accom-
plished this, she rettirned home with them, where, assisted
by some kihdiy shepherdesses, she contrived to tack each of
the tails of her poor sheep in its place again. Her lover,
Colin, a ',Ming slitonerd, undertook to watch the flock all
night, as 80-Peep was tired and wanted to go to bed. The
sheep being all carefully put into the fold, and watched by
Colin, 80-Peep prepared to retire for the night; but when
Rho had laid down, the wicked wolf appeared to carry her off
by force—dragged her nut Of her bed, and, with the aid of
his companiOns ecingliered Colin, notwithstanding Ito-Peep's
favotirite blinkskarn, and her dog Lion, came to defend their
thittietei In this extremity, she called upon her godmoth,er
tt help her, who immediately appeared in all her fair glory;
'hinged Colin into Harlequin, 80-Peep into Columbine, the
wicked Wolf into Pantaloon, his Cowherd into Clown. She
tpen told 80-Peep, that if, after twelve months, she would
correct herself of going to sleep in the day-time, she would
consent to her marriage with Colin. 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.
