THE TRAVELLING MUSICIANS

‘Besides,’ added the dog, ‘I should not be the worse for a bone or two, or a bit of meat.’

So they walked off together towards the spot where Chanticleer had seen the light, and as they drew near it became larger and brighter, till they at last came close to a house in which a gang of robbers lived.

The ass, being the tallest of the company, marched up to the window and peeped in.

‘Well, Donkey,’ said Chanticleer, ‘what do you see?’

‘What do I see?’

replied the ass.

‘Why, I see a table spread with all kinds of good things, and robbers sitting round it making merry.’

‘That would be a noble lodging for us,’ said the cock.

‘Yes,’ said the ass, ‘if we could only get in’; so they consulted together how they should contrive to get the robbers out; and at last they hit upon a plan.

The ass placed himself upright on his hind legs, with his forefeet resting against the window; the dog got upon his back; the cat scrambled up to the dog’s shoulders, and the cock flew up and sat upon the cat’s head.

When all was ready a signal was given, and they began their music.
