"But would not the dogs follow you in amongst the sheep and catch you there?" said Tommy Smith. BUT WOULD NOT THE DOGS FOLLOW YOU IN AMONGST THE SHEEP AND CATCH YOU THERE SAID TOMMY SMITH
 through a hedge and gallop away.” “Bravo!” cried Tommy Smith. The hare looked very pleased, and said, “I see that you are not at all a stupid boy, so I will tell you something else. Now, supposing you were being chased across the fields by a lot of dogs, and you were to come to a flock of sheep, what would you do?” Tommy Smith thought a little, and then he said, “I think I should call out to the shepherd and ask him to help me.” “Yes, and I daresay he _would_ help _you_,” said the hare, “for he would remember the time when _he_ was a little boy, and he would feel sorry for you. But he would not feel sorry for _me_, who am only a little hare (he was never _that_, you know). He would throw his stick at me, as you did, and then he would do all he could to help the dogs to catch me. No, it is not the shepherd that I should ask to help me, but the sheep—_they_ are so gentle,—and when I came to them I should run right into the middle of them, and then the dogs would not be able to find me.” EN THEY ARE TOO TIRED TO RUN ANY MORE I SLIP QUIETLY THROUGH THE HEDGE AND GALLOP AWAY BRAVO CRIED TOMMY SMITH THE HARE LOOKED VERY PLEASED AND SAID I SEE THAT YOU ARE NOT AT ALL A STUPID BOY SO I WILL TELL YOU SOMETHING ELSE NOW SUPPOSING YOU ARE BEING CHASED ACROSS THE FIELDS BY A LOT OF DOGS AND YOU WEREN'T TO COME TO A FLOCK OF SHEEP WHAT WOULD YOU DO TOMMY SMITH THOUGHT A LITTLE AND THEN HE SAID I THINK I SHOULD CALL OUT TO THE SHEPHERD AND ASK HIM TO HELP ME YES AND DARE SAY HE WOULD HELP YOU SAID THE HARE FOR HE WOULD REMEMBER THE TIME WHEN HE WAS A LITTLE BOY AND HE WOULD FEEL SORRY FOR YOU BUT HE WOULD NOT FEEL SORRY FOR ME WHO AM ONLY A LITTLE HARE HE WAS NEVER THAT YOU KNOW HE WOULD THROW HIS STICK AT ME AS YOU DID AND THEN HE WOULD DO ALL HE COULD TO HELP THE DOGS TO CATCH ME NO IT IS NOT THE SHEPHERD THAT I SHOULD ASK TO HELP ME BUT THE SHEEP THEY ARE SO GENTLE AND WHEN I CAME TO THEM I SHOULD RUN RIGHT INTO THE MIDDLE OF THEM AND THEN THE DOGS WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO FIND ME
