'Well,' said the sparrow, 'you shall have some more if you will;

so come with me to the next shop, and I will peck you down

another steak.' When the dog had eaten this too, the sparrow said

to him, 'Well, my good friend, have you had enough now?' 'I have

had plenty of meat,' answered he, 'but I should like to have a

piece of bread to eat after it.' 'Come with me then,' said the

sparrow, 'and you shall soon have that too.' So she took him to a

baker's shop, and pecked at two rolls that lay in the window,

till they fell down: and as the dog still wished for more, she

took him to another shop and pecked down some more for him. When

that was eaten, the sparrow asked him whether he had had enough

now.
