The Milkmaid and Her Pail

Short Stories



Patty the Milkmaid was going to market carrying her milk in a pail on her head.

As she went along, she began calculating what she would do with the money she would 


get for the milk. I'll buy some 


fowls from Farmer Brown," said she, "and they will lay eggs each morning, which I will 

sell to the parson's wife..


With the money that I get from the sale of these eggs, I'll buy myself a new dimity frock 


and a chip hat; and when I go to market, won't all the young men come up and speak to me! Short Stories

Polly Shaw will be so jealous; but I don't care. I shall just look at her and toss my head 



like this." As she spoke that, she 


tossed her head back and the pail fell off it, and all the milk was spilt!
