He ran on, with the old woman and the old man and the cow and the
horse following, and he went past a party of people haymaking. They
all looked up as they saw the gingerbread man, and as he passed
them he called out:
- "I´ve run from an old woman, And from an old man, And a cow and a
horse. Run, run, as fast as you can, You can´t catch me, I´m the
gingerbread man!"
The haymakers joined in the chase behind the old woman and the old
man, the cow and the horse, and they all followed,him as he ran
through the fields.
There he met a fox, so he called out to the fox:
"Run, run, as fast as you can, You can´t catch me, I´m the gingerbread
man!"
But the sly fox said,
-"Why should I bother to catch you?" although he thought to himself,
"That gingerbread man would be good to eat."
Just after he had run past the fox the gingerbread man had to stop
because he came to a wide, deep, swift-flowing river. The fox saw the
old woman and the old man, the cow, the horse and the haymakers all
chasing the gingerbread man so he said,
-"Jump on my back, and I´ll take you across the river!"
The gingerbread man jumped on the fox´s back and the fox began to
swim. As they reached the middle of the river, where the water was
deep, the fox said,
- "Can you stand on my head, Gingerbread Man, or you will get wet."
So the gingerbread man pulled himself up and stood on the fox´s head.
As the current flowed more swiftly, the fox said, "
- Can you move on to my nose, Gingerbread Man, so that I can carry
you more safely? I would not like you to drown."
The gingerbread man slid on to the fox´s nose. But when they reached
the bank of the river, the fox suddenly went snap! The gingerbread man
disappeared into the fox´s mouth, and was never seen again.
