sas- An Irishman, being very fond of cool
milk for his dinner, his wife always kept it in
the spring in large bowl. One day frog
concluded to take quarters in the bowl, it
being just deep enough to hide him.
Dinner came on, and the old woman put the
bowl before the old man, not dreaming of a
frog being in it.
The old man went on enjoying his milk and
bread as usual, until he drank it so low as to
make the frog visible, when he exclaimed /:
Faith and be jabers, old omern, what's
this in me milk ?"
