PRESENTATION
Now let us read about a shepherd who was playing music. (The teacher reads the poem.) While he was playing, what did he see? He saw a little child sitting on a cloud.
What was the child doing? He was laughing.
Why? He liked the music.
What kind of music was it? It was pleasant, full of joy.
Where was the shepherd? In a valley.
Tell what the valley was like. It was wild. It had big rocks and hills on each side, and a cloud was over the valley.
What did the child ask him to do? To play "a song about a Lamb".
Why did he do that? Because the sheep were pretty and he thought he should like to hear pretty music about them.
How did the child like it? He asked the shepherd to play the tune again, and it was such beautiful music that the keen enjoyment of it made the tears come to his eyes.
