tHE TRITE 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 rood 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.
Met 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 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 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 whom she drove a bargain
for getting them hack, tails and all. When she had accom-
plished this, she returned home with them, where, assisted
by some kindly shepherdesses, she contrived to tack moll of
the tails of her poor sheep in its place again. Her lover,
Colin, a young shenterd, 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
she had laid down, the wicked wolf appeared to carry her off
by force--dragged her out of her bed, and, with the aid of
his companions, conquered Colin, notwithstanding Do-Peep's
favourite black Ram, and her dog Lion, came to defend their
mistress. In this extremity, she called upon her godmother
t' hell, her, who immediately appeared in all her fair glory ;
changed Conn into Harlequin, 80-Peep into Columbine, the
wicked Wolf into Pantaleon, his Cowherd into Clown. She
then told Do-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 Conn. It is needless to add,
Little 80-Peep did correct herself—was married to Cohn, and
afterwards lived like the other shepherdesses—as happy as the
days were long.
