away through the woods and swamps to save his life.

One evening he came to a woodcutter’s hut. He was very tired and hungry, so he begged the woodcutter’s wife to

give him something to eat and a place to sleep in. He was ragged and dirty and she did not know that he was the king. She

felt so sorry for him that she told him to come in and gave hem a seat near the fire.

She was baking some cakes. She said to King Alfred, “ I must go and milk the cow. Watch the cakes and do not let

them burn. “ The king was willing to do this, but he kept

thinking about his army and soon forgot all about the cakes. In a

few minutes the woman came back and found the cakes burning. She was so angry that she struck the king with a stick

and cried, “ You lazy fellow! You want to eat, but you do not want to work.”

money

as

you

can.”

Jack,

who

was

a

good,

but

thoughtless boy, started for the market with his cow. On his may to t he market he met a man who had a pig with him.

“Good morning,” said the man. “Good morning,” answered Jack. “Won’t you give me your old cow for this fat young

pig?” said the man. Jack t

hought it a good idea. So he ax-changed his old cow for the young pig He walked on happily

until he met another man who had some fine beans. “These are magic beans,” said the man. “I’ll give you one of them, if

you give me that pig.” Jack thought it wonder

ful to have a magic bean. So he consented to it and carried the bean proudly

back home. He showed the bean to his mother. “Is this all that you have got for that cow?” she said. “Now, we have on

cow to give us milk. All we have is this bean.” She got angry

. She threw it out of the window. The bean fall in their garden.

During that night is sprouted and grew in a wonderful way. When jack and his mother woke the next morning, they saw

that the beanstalk had grown so high that they could not see the top Jack made up his mind to climb to the top of the

beanstalk. Higher and higher up he climbed until he found himself near a window of an old castle. Looking in, Jack saw a

giant eating his, dinner. The giant finished his dinner and ordered his servant to bring his chief treasures, a hen and a

harp. Lay eggs,” said the giant to the hen. The hen began to lay eggs. They were eggs of gold. “Play,” said the giant to the

harp. The harp began to play sweet music. The harp played on and on until the giant grew tired and fell asleep.

Jack had crawled into the room by this time. When the giant was asleep, a servant beckoned to Jack. “Look here. These

are the treasures which the giant stole from your father before you were born,” said he. “Take them back to your mothe

r,

if you like. But, be quiet. He may wake.” Jack thanked him, and picked up the hen and the harp very carefully. When he

was

climbing

down

the

beanstalk,

the

harp

happened

to

make

a

loud

noise.

The

giant

woke.

Jack

climbed

down

the

beanstalk, with the hen and the harp under his arms. The giant ran down after Jack, but Jack ran faster than the giant.

When he was near his home, he called out to his mother, “Mother, bring an ax.” His mother brought an ax. She saw her

son climbing down the beanstalk. As soon as he got down to the ground, he chopped down the beanstalk. Down fell the

giant with the beanstalk. He broke his neck, and was dead. Jack and his mother were rich all the rest of their lives and

lived happily ever after.

Happy Shoemaker

（快樂的鞋匠）

(1)

Once there lived a rich merchant and a poor shoemaker in the same house. The merchant occupied in the same house.

The

merchant

occupied

the

second

floor,

but

the

shoemaker

lived

and

worked

in

a

small

room

on

the

first

floor.

The

shoemaker was one of the happiest persons on earth. He worked from morning till night, singing merrily. His heart was

filled with joy, whenever he looked at the boots and shoes to be repaired. Now the merchant upstairs was so rich that he

hardly knew how much wealth he had. He was always counting over his gold and silver coins far into the night. Even in

bed his uneasiness about his riches kept him awake when at last he had been asleep for an hour or two, up came the song

of the happy shoemaker, who was an early riser. It continued

all day and was a trouble to the merchant day by day the

merchant grew more and more tired through want of sleep he asked a wise friend of his how he could put an end to the

shoemaker's song. “Well, if I were you, I would give the shoemaker a hundred pounds,” answered his friend. “Y

ou are

rich enough to do that, I suppose. Ask for nothing in return. Simply give the money. ”The merchant readily followed the

advice.

(2)

When the shoemaker opened the bag that had been sent by the merchant, he was amazed to fin

d shining coins. “I must

hide this from the eyes of my neighbors. If they see it, they will think that I have stolen it,” he thought. “I will keep it

away

even from my wife.” So he hid the bag of money under the floor. From then on he avoided his neighbors

as much as he

could. His wife who

had

been

the best

companion

to

him,

became

troublesome

now

his

mind was

too much

set

on

the

money bag to attend to his work with diligence. He could not sing merrily now. Whenever he thought of the money bag,

he became uneasy and unhappy. At length one day his wife said to him in tears, ---

“dear husband, what makes you so sad

and uneasy? All our neighbors say you have changed. I wish you were as good and gentle as before.” He was so sorry for

her that he told her everythin

g. “We were happy before the merchant gave us the money, ” said his wife, when she heard

the story. “We have good health. We have plenty of work to do. What more do we need? Send the money back

to the

merchant, and the happy life that was once ours will re

turn to us.” The shoemaker agreed and went to the merchant to

return the bag of money. “Sir” he said, “let me return this to you. By giving this to me, you have spoiled my happy and

easy life. So I want to have it back by returning your present.” Merry son

g was again heard all over the house. He was as

happy as he had ever been.

Three Wishes

三個願望

A man and his wife were always wishing for luck. One night a fairy came to them and said, “You may have three wishes.”

In the morning the woman went to a n

eighbor’s house to get some bread. She saw a nice pudding there. When she came

back, she said, “I wish I had a pudding like that! She did not think of the three wishes, but there was a pudding beside her.

“Silly!” cried the man, you have lost one of your wishes, and we have only a pudding. I wish it were on your nose!” At that,

the pudding jumped up and grew fast to her nose. “Silly, yourself!” cried the woman, “you have lost another wish. We

have only one wish more.” “What shall it be?” asked the man. “We must wish this pudding off,” said the woman. “I can’t

have it on my nose.” So they wished it would go away, and away it went. They had had their three wishes, but they were

on better off than when the fairy came to them.

Rowland

恰德羅蘭

(1)Long ago there was a little princess named Ellen. She lived with her mother, the queen in a great castle by the sea. She

had three brothers. One day. As they were playing ball, one of her brothers threw the ball over the castle. Ellen ran to get

it, and did not come back. The three brothers looked for her. They looked and looked, but they could not find her. Day

after day went by. At last the oldest brother went to a wise man and asked that man. The wise man told him as he had told

the oldest brother. Then the next brother set out to find the dark tower. The youngest brother waited. He waited long, but

no one came back. Now the youngest brother was called childe Rowland. At last childe Rowland went to his mother,

the

queen, and said, “mother, let me go and find the dark tower and bring home Ellen and my brothers. “I cannot let you go.

You are all that I have now,” said the queen. But childe Rowland asked again and again, until at last the queen said, “go,

my boy. ”then she gave him his father’s sword, and he set out. He went to the wise man and asked the way. The wise man

told him and said: “I will tell you two things: one thing is for you to do, and one thing is for you not to do. “the thing to

do

is

this: when you

get

to

the country of

the

elves,

hold your father’s sword,

pull

it out

quickly,

and

cut off

the

head of

anyone who speaks to you, until you find the princess Ellen. “the thing not to do is this: bite no bit and drink no drop

until

you

come

back.

Go

hungry

and

thirsty

while

you

are

in

the

country

of

the

elves.”

Childe

Rowland

said

the

two

things over and over, lest he should forget. Then he went on his way. He went on and on and on, until he came to some

horses with eyes of fire. Then he knew he was in the

country of the elves. A man was with the horses. “where is the dark

tower?” asked childe Rowland. “I cannot tell. Ask the woman that keeps the hens,” said the man. Childe Rowland took

the sword and off went the man’s head. Then he went on and on, until he

came to some hens with eyes of fire. An old

woman was with them. “where is the dark tower?” asked childe Rowland. “go and look for a hill,” said the old woman.

“go around the hill three times. Each time you go around say: “open, door! Open, door! Let me come in. “when you have

gone three times around, door will open. Go in.” “when you have gone three times around, door will open. Go in.”

(2)Childe Rowland did not like to cut off the head of the old woman, but he thought of what the wise man had told him.

So he took hold of the sword, and off went her head. After this he went on and on and on, until at last he came to a hill. He

went three times around it, and each time he said: “open, door! Open, door! Let me come in.” when he had gone three

times around, a door opened. In he went. The door shut after him, and he was in the dark. Soon he began to see a dim

light. It seemed to come from the walls. He went down a long way, and at last he came to another door. All at once it flew

open, and he found himself in a great hall. The walls were of gold and silver, and were hung with diamonds. How the

diamonds shone! And there sat the princess Ellen in a big chair of gold, with diamonds all about her head. When she saw

childe Rowland, she came to him and said: “brothe

r, why are you here? If the king of the elves comes, it will be a sad ay

for you.” But this did not frighten childe Rowland. He sat down and told her all that he had done. She told him that the

two brothers were in the tower. The king of the elves had turned them into stone. Soon childe Rowland began to be very

hungry, and asked for something to eat. All at once he thought of what the wise man had said. So he threw the bowl down

upon the floor, and said: “Not a bit will I bite, Not a drop will I drink, till

Ellen is free.” Then they heard a great noise

outside, and someone cried out:---

” fee

-fi-fo- fum!

I smell the blood of an Englishman!” the door of the hall flew open

and the king of the elves came in. childe Rowland took his sword. They fought and they fought. At last childe Rowland

beat the king of the elves down to the ground. “stop!” cried the king of the elves. “I have had enough.” “I will stop when

you set free the princess Ellen and my brothers,” said childe Rowland. “I will set them free,” said the

king. He went at

once to a cupboard and took out a blood-red bottle. Out of this bottle he let a drop or tow fall upon the eyes of the two

brothers, and up they jumped. Childe Rowland took the hand of his sister Ellen and went out of the hall, and up the long

way. The two brothers went after them. And they all came out from the hill and found their way back to their own home.

How glad their mother was!

s and His Cat

狄更斯與他的貓

Charles Dickens, the famous English novelist, wrote a great many books. He had a cat of which he was very fond. She was

a

fine

Persian

cat

with

pure

white

fur.

One

evening,

as

he

was

absorbed

in

reading

one

of

his

favorite

books

by

a

candle-light, the candle suddenly went out. He was surprised, but took a match, struck it, and lighted the and lighted the

candle

again,

and

once

more

sat

down

to

read.

You

can

imagine

his

astonishment

when

he

again

found

himself

in

complete darkness. He looked around the room, lighted the candle again, and began to read once more. After a while he

stopped and looked up. He saw that his cat was trying to put out the ligh

t with her paw. The cat’s intentions were quite

clear to him-she wanted him to stop reading and play with her a while. Of course he did this, and besides he gave her

some

milk.

The

cat was

quite contented.

She went over

and curled

herself

into

a

ball

on

the

sofa

to

take

a

nap. Then

Dickens continued to read, and this time pussy did not interrupt him again.
