Story 265


              The Rescue of Billy Goat


               Once while grazing on wild  oat, Billy  goat,  wearing his real 100% kid

               coat, tripped and fell into a castle moat. So much water swashed down
               his throat, that he could barely stay  afloat.  But lucky for the goat,

               the  watchful Queen  was  taking  note,  and  rescued  Billy  in  her

               motorboat.

               They    both   took an oath. He promised never to act as a lazy sloth; she

               promised to keep her heart free from anger or wroth. This was

               their troth, for both wanted a bountiful marriage growth.







              Story 267

                                               A Party near the Cove


               The hostess        drove    to  the market       near the ocean cove,           where she

               bought     a ham and      a garlic    clove. Then she went to           a  certain grove,
               having oranges that abundantly throve.



               That evening guests came in a drove. They tasted the ham prepared in

               her   stove,   and   exclaimed,     "By  Jove,   how   tasty   garnished     with   oranges
               and   clove   ! And how singularly per-fect are these slices your cleaver

               clove!"
