Mother. Yes, it is; and the dew is off.
Boy. I see the sun. Is it fit for me to go out?
Mother. Now it is; but by ten it may be hot. So get up now.
Boy. May I go to-day, and buy my top?
Mother. Yes, you may.
Boy. A peg-top? Sam has a peg-top. He has let me use his. One day he did.
I met Tom one day, and he had a top so big!
I can hop as far as Tom can.
Tom has a bat too! and Tom is but of my age.
