'To Granny's house I go,
Where I shall fatter grow,
Then you can eat me so.'
The Vulture thought this reasonable, and let
Lambikin pass.
And by and by he met a Tiger, and then a Wolf, and a Dog, and an
Eagle, and all these, when they saw the tender little morsel, said--
'Lambikin! Lambikin! I'll _eat_ _you_!'
