"And what will she give you for it?" asked the scarecrow.
"Some milk for the pea-nut woman to put in her tea."
"And what will the pea-nut woman give you?"
"A handful of pea-nuts for Jack the monkey."
"And what will Master Jack give you?"
"A penny to buy a marrow-bone for Ratty Terrier."
"Who will probably bite off your head for your pains."
"Oh no, indeed. He has promised to kill the wicked rat that steals our food for me; and then Tabby and Sancho will give me back the beautiful medal I won at the cat show."
"You are winning it twice, I think; but can you frighten birds?"
"Oh yes, indeed."
