Page 16 - The Traveler and the Donkey final inside 18a
P. 16
So, Donkey decided on a road much more easy,
Though he still whined that his stomach was queasy.
He bid the man run, and to make utmost haste,
but the road donkey had chosen led straight to the waste!
The sun beat down, and their water ran out,
the Donkey, vexed, began to scream and to shout.
“This is all your fault!” to the man, he declared
“You made me come with you and now I am scared!
Take me home NOW! You incompetent man,
and don’t even DREAM of leaving again!”
