didn't hurry He took his time,
and his mind was filled with pleas

had had in Farmer Browns garden

have there in the future. Peter
was half way to the dear Old Brier
Patch when he felt tiny pain in
his stomach.
Guess over-ate a little" said
he as he hoped along. Presently
that little pain began TO grow. as
little pains have way OF doing,
and almost in no time II was a big
pain, Peter stopped and pressed
both hands against his stomach.
There was no doubt about Il, Peter
had stomachache. Yes, sir, Peter
had a stomachache. Gracious me,
how It did ache! You know Peter
has very big stomach. and there
is room for lot OF ache as well
as a lot OF food II ached worse

sick, and every minute he felt more
sick. He began to feel weak in the

groaned Peter.
Every few hops he stopped to lie

He must reach the Old Brier Patch.
II wouldn't do to be too sick to

How he did wish he had kept away

knew II was what he had eaten

thought II was because he had eaten
too much. Still he had been sick
