No. 1.—Little Girl and Pitcher.

TAKE care, little girl, that you do notfall into the water; for if once you fell in,you could not get out again, unless somebodyhappened to come to your assistance.When you are sent by your mother to fetchwater, you should be careful how you dipyour jug in; and after it is filled, youshould go steadily home, without playingby the way.
No. 1 and 2

No. 2.—Sheep and Lambs.

Dearest Fanny, come to me,
Take and eat my sweet grass here;
Once you never us'd to flee,
When with joy I did appear.

But now, your lambkin by your side
Takes all your thoughts and all your care;
I may go, and run, and ride,
You are careless how, or where.

No. 3.—Man and Ass.

"Turnips, cabbages, carrots, Ho! Nowtry, Ma'am; I dare say you and I canagree upon a price for this bunch of turnips:they were fresh gathered this morning,I assure you; and I think if you buyof me once, you will never buy of any bodyelse.—Pray, Ma'am, try my fine, freshcodlins. They are very cheap, and aslarge as you can get any where."

3 and 4

No. 4.—Milk-maid and Cow.

How quiet that cow seems, which Mollythe dairy-maid has just been milking. Insome parts of the world there are wildcows, and buffaloes too, which will killthose who attack them, if they can; but inthis happy island, there are no fierce wildbeasts, to frighten us from the fields byday, or disturb our slumbers by night.
