So all that day Tommy Smith kept thinking of what the rat had promised; and when his bedtime came, instead of wanting to stay up longer, as he usually did, he was quite pleased to go, and went upstairs without making any fuss. SO ALL THAT DAY TOMMY SMITH KEPT THINKING OF WHAT THE RAT HAD PROMISED AND WHEN HIS BEDTIME CAME INSTEAD OF WANTING TO STAY UP LONGER AS HE USUALLY DID HE WAS QUITE PLEASED TO GO AND WENT UPSTAIRS WITHOUT MAKING ANY FUSS
 what he is accused of. Perhaps it is of stealing the sticks from another rook’s nest to make his own with. Perhaps it is of something even worse than that. But this you may be sure of, that if we _do_ peck him to death, it will be because he has behaved himself in a manner totally unworthy of a rook. Now I really must go, or I shall be late. Good-bye,—and, let me see, I think you promised never to throw stones at rooks again.” “Oh no!” said Tommy Smith, “I promise not to.” “Or to shoot us when you grow up,” said the rook, just turning his head round as he was preparing to fly. “Oh no! indeed, I won’t,” said Tommy Smith; and the rook flew away with a loud caw of pleasure. [Illustration: “I SHALL KEEP AWAKE TILL THE RAT COMES”] CHAPTER IV. THE RAT “_The rat is a king. Tommy Smith has a peep At his palace: but is he awake or asleep?_” “I SEE you,” said the rat, as Tommy Smith passed through the yard of his father’s house. “I see you, but it is not the right time yet. Wait till to-night.”  CHAPTER FOUR OF TOMMY SMITH'S ANIMALS THIS IS A LEVER BOX RECORDING ALL LEVER BOX RECORDINGS ARE IN THE PUBLIC DOMAIN FOR MORE INFORMATION OR TO VOLUNTEER PLEASE VISIT LEVER BOX THAT ORG TOMMY SMITH'S ANIMALS BY EDMUND SELLOUS THE RAT THE RAT IS A KING TOMMY SMITH HAS A PEEP AT HIS PALACE BUT IS HE AWAKE OR ASLEEP I SEE YOU SAID THE RAT AS TOMMY SMITH PASSED THROUGH THE YARD OF HIS FATHER'S HOUSE I SEE YOU BUT IT IS NOT THE RIGHT TIME YET WAIT TILL TO NIGHT
