_First Boy._ I see a man! The man has a dog. The man has got in.
The dog has not got in: but the man has got in.
_Mother._ Do not cry, dog; you will see the man by-and-by. Dog! why do
you cry?
_Second Boy._ I can not see.
_First Boy._ You are too low. Get up.
_Second Boy._ I can not get up.
_First Boy._ Try;—now you are up.
_Second Boy._ I see the cow.
_First Boy._ I see two. I see the red cow; and I see the dun cow.
_Second Boy._ I see a hog. Pig! pig! pig! why do you run?
_First Boy._ Now I see one, two, six—yes, ten hogs. Why do you all
run?—Now let us go off.
_Second Boy._ You can not see me.
_First Boy._ You are hid.
_Second Boy._ I see you. Can you not see me?
_First Boy._ O, now I can get up.
_Second Boy._ No, I can run; you can not get me.
_First Boy._ Yes, I can.
_Second Boy._ Let us go to _Tom_.
_First Boy._ We must not go out.
_Second Boy._ I can get out.
_First Boy._ So can I; but do not go yet.
_Second Boy._ Why may not we go yet?
_First Boy._ _D_o as you are bid, and do not ask _why_, is the law for
a boy.
