Why the tire burst with such a loud noise, just like a gun, you know, that the wildcat was frightened nearly to death and she turned around and ran away so fast that she got home an hour too early for supper. Near the Friendly Forest Pool Is the Woodland Singing School. Little Squirrel Bushy Tail Sings the Do, Ray, Mee, Fa scale. Uncle Bullfrog sings "Ker-chunk" From his floating elm tree trunk.
His voice, shrill and piping, ever and again dropped plummet-like into a hoarse and rattling bass, and, just as one became accustomed to it, soaring upward into the thin treble alternate cricket chirpings and bullfrog croakings, as it were. "So a girl was chosen for me," he was saying. "For my father, who was Kask-ta-ka, the Otter, was angered because I looked not with a needful eye upon women.
"He must have got excited or something, for he took a step forward, putting himself in full view, and just then I saw what he didn't see that there were some of those Boer beggars just under our kopje, and that one of them had raised his rifle to pick off Bullfrog.
Pooh! you are joking. "'But the suit for breach of promise! groaned I. "'Ah! and is that the rub? exclaimed my wife. 'Is it possible that you view that affair in an objectionable light?

But if you had to live in the country, you would grumble in a month's time. Even a bullfrog and he is brought up to it, poor wretch croaks at night." Colum interrupted. "That's not true, Flint. I know I'd like it to live on a farm and keep chickens. Sometimes in winter, or more often in spring, I can hardly wait for summer and my two weeks.
Besides these varieties of frogs there lives in the garden a huge uncouth goggle-eyed thing which, although called here hikigaeru, I take to be a toad. 'Hikigaeru' is the term ordinarily used for a bullfrog. This creature enters the house almost daily to be fed, and seems to have no fear even of strangers.
"I will," said the little bunny, for he was a cheerful little fellow, and then he hopped away and by and by he came to the Old Mill Pond. But Uncle Bullfrog was nowhere to be seen. There stood the old log, but there was nobody on it but a black snail.
"'To divert my mind, says Mr Bullfrog, who tells his own story, 'I took up the newspaper which had covered the little basket of refreshments, and which now lay at the bottom of the coach, blushing with a deep red stain, and emitting a potent spirituous fume, from the contents of the broken bottle of kalydor.
