A Story (continued)
“Once upon a time there were two children named Puck and Blossom.”
(continued from previous page)they hastened their steps. Hoping that someone down their would be kind enough to offer them some bread and milk. However in spite of hunger, Blossom wandered about picking primroses while Puck marched on before, stopping now and again, and calling Blossom to come on. Suddenly Puck heard a shrill cry, and the little girl flew up and caught him by the arm. "O Puck, the wasp, the wasp, was buzzing right at my ear."
