But while yet slumber his lids did cumber

He blew another blast;

And the giant rush’d out and blink’d about,

Till Jack he spied at last.

What whipster is that scarce as tall as a cat?

He’ll do to broil or bake:

But he’s too small for me withal

This long night’s fast to break.

Tis Jack, I swear! ah Jack, mon cher,

This is a merry bout!
