Sandman's Goodnight Stories
THE EATYOUP
Dicky Duck was a very wise young fellow. He swam about the pond alone
long before his brothers left their mother, and such worms and bugs and
things of that sort as he found made all the other young ducks quite
green with envy.
But one day Dicky Duck almost lost his life by thinking he was so wise,
for he was swimming around the pond when he came to the woods where Mr.
Fox was hiding back of some bushes.
Dicky did not go near enough for Mr. Fox to catch him, but Mr. Fox
could see that he was a nice plump duck and it made his eyes shine with
longing to look at him.
"Ah me," he sighed as Dicky swam by, "if only I knew some wise creature
to ask! I am far too dull to know anything myself."
When Dicky heard the word "wise" he felt sure that meant him, for was
not he the wisest duck of his size and age? So he stopped swimming and
looked around.
Mr. Fox had hidden himself well under the bushes now. Not even the tip
of his nose could be seen and he made his voice sound very weak, as if
he were a very small animal.
