BABY PEGGY'S OWN STORY BOOK *'Rat, rat, gnaw rope, Rope won't hang butcher; Butcher won't kill ox; Ox won't drink water; Water won't quench fire; Fire won't burn stick; Stick won't beat dog; Dog won't bite pig; Piggy won't get over the stile, And I shan't get home in time To make my old man his apple-dumpling." But the rat would not. She went a little farther, and she met a cat. So she said: "Cat, cat, kill rat; Rat won't gnaw rope; Rope won't hang butcher; Butcher won't kill ox; Ox won't drink water; Water won't quench fire; Fire won't burn stick; Stick won't beat dog; Dog won't bite pig; Piggy won't get over the stile And I shan't get home in time To make my old man his apple-dumpling." But the cat said to her, "If you will go to yonder cow and fetch me a saucer of milk, I will kill the rat." So away went the old woman to the cow, and said, Cow, cow, give me a saucer of milk."
