                                                          (C)

             He then put him into a large bag, and carried (c) him


             away. Poor Nick, who was in great fear, did all he could

             do to escape from his cruel captor. He tried to tear the


             bag, but the giant only laughed at (d) him. At last, the

             giant  came  to  his  own  house  with  a  high  wall  all


             around it, and no trees, nor flowers. He put Nick into a

             prison.  It  was  quite  a  dark  room,  with  iron  bars  all

             around it.











                                                          (D)

             He told Nick to sing, the same as he did when he was


             in his own home. “Sing! sing! sing!” said he, “Why don’t

             you sing?” But Nick was too sad to sing. Who could


             sing in a prison! At length the giant grew very angry,

             and took Nick out of the prison to make him sing.


             (e) He shook him, and then ordered him to sing. Nick

             felt terrified while missing whatever he enjoyed with


             freedom  at  his  home.  Now  I  will  tell  you  who  they

             were. Nick was a little bird and that giant was a cruel


             boy
