Jump on my back, said the lamb.

I'll carry you.

I can not possibly stand riding like this. It jars all my sore spots. I'll have to get off. He tried it a little while longer and shook about worse than ever. Then he said,
gpt
Do you know, I think I could endure this painful ride a little better if only I had something to hold myself by? Do you mind if I take a piece of grass and put it in your mouth? I can hold on to that when I shake about and my sore spots will not hurt so much.

He searched on every hill, in every valley, by every stream, and under all the trees. At last he found a place which was just right. It was not too high nor too low, not too near a stream and not too far away from one, not under too thick trees and yet not away from the trees out in the hot sun. The tiger said to himself,

human
Somebody is helping me. The foundations of my house are all laid.
