She took a clean dish
To get him some tripe;
When she came back
He was smoking his pipe.
She went to the Alehouse
To get him some beer;
When she came back
The Dog sat in a Chair.
She went to the Tavern
For white wine and red;
When she came back
The Dog stood on his head.
She went to the Fruiterer's
To buy him some fruit;
When she came back
He was playing the flute.
The Treasury of Tales series adapts illustrated stories that were published in the 1800s and early 1900s, using the contemporary language and images. These are the richer language and pictures read by earlier generations, before the tales were simplified and sanitised for mass-produced ‘modern audiences’. Join us as we enjoy fun tales from long ago.
