![]() ![]() ![]() Some one had stood a tin can upon a stone to catch the water-but the water was already running over, for the can was no bigger than an egg-cup! And where the sand upon the path was wet-there were foot-marks of a VERY small person. PRESENTLY she came to a spring, bubbling out from the hill-side. ![]() LUCIE scrambled up the hill as fast as her stout legs would carry her she ran along a steep path-way-up and up-until Little-town was right away down below-she could have dropped a pebble down the chimney! Lucie climbed upon the stile and looked up at the hill behind Little-town-a hill that goes up-up-into the clouds as though it had no top!Īnd a great way up the hillside she thought she saw some white things spread upon the grass. THE Kitten went on washing her white paws so Lucie asked a speckled hen-īut the speckled hen ran into a barn, clucking-Ĭock Robin looked sideways at Lucie with his bright black eye, and he flew over a stile and away. One day little Lucie came into the farm-yard crying- oh, she did cry so! "I've lost my pocket-handkin! Three handkins and a pinny! Have YOU seen them, Tabby Kitten?" She was a good little girl-only she was always losing her pocket- handkerchiefs! ONCE upon a time there was a little girl called Lucie, who lived at a farm called Little-town. ![]()
