Once upon a time hungry Fox Lox was prowling about under a great tree on the hillside, when a chestnut burr fell thump upon his head. "Ah!" said cunning Fox Lox, "by this I will get a fine dinner." Just then along came Chicker Ricker. "Oh, run down hill with me where you will be quite safe, Chicker Ricker," cried Fox Lox, "for the sky is surely tumbling down!" "Who told you, Fox Lox?"
"Oh, I heard it and I felt it and it came thump upon my crown!" "Then I will run down hill with you," cried Chicker Ricker. So they ran and they ran and they ran. Soon they met Hen Ren.

So they ran and they ran and they ran; and when Chicker Ricker and Hen Ren and Cock Lock and Duck Luck and Drake Lake and Goose Loose and Gander Lander and Turk Lurk and Dove Love reached the bottom of the hill, they were going so fast that they could not stop and they ran straight into Fox Lox's hole. "Now I have you! Now I have you!" cried Fox Lox. And he gobbled them all up.
