"To-morrow I will not tremble," thought he; "I will enjoy all my splendor, and I shall hear the story of Humpty Dumpty again, and perhaps Ivede-Avede." And the tree remained quiet and thoughtful all night. In the morning the servants and the housemaid came in. "Now," thought the fir, "all my splendor is going to begin again."
Oh, uncle," I cried passionately, "I knew I couldn't do it when I began." "The bird? What! Humpty Dumpty? What! Polly? Why, my boy, she's splendid, and your aunt will be so " "She's not," I cried, flashing into passion. "She isn't like a bird at all. I know how soft and rounded and smooth birds are; and did you ever see such a horrid thing as that? It's a beast, uncle! It's a regular guy!
"I was laid only this morning," said Humpty, drying his tears, "so you need have no fear. But do not call me 'little egg, for I am quite large, as eggs go, and I have a name of my own." "What is your name?" asked the Princess. "It is Humpty Dumpty," he answered, proudly.
The queer suddenly things he popped out with attracted the elder man who was several years the other's senior or like his father but something substantial he certainly ought to eat even were it only an eggflip made on unadulterated maternal nutriment or, failing that, the homely Humpty Dumpty boiled. At what o'clock did you dine? he questioned of the slim form and tired though unwrinkled face.
To my astonishment he smiled and waved his hand. "I'm cheek to your jowl, Parson," he said; "set out the O-be-joyful." "Hey, Roy!" called Peppers, "bring another pitcher for Humpty Dumpty." Then he kicked the table with his great cowhide boots and began to bellow: "Zaccheus he clum a tree His Lord an' Master for to see; The limb did break an' he did fall, An' he didn't git to see his Lord at all."
It was a kind thought of yours to try to rescue Poor Jane's brother, but obedience to nurse should have come first." "But we forgot, mummie," said Humpty. "What would have happened if the sentinel had forgotten that he was trusted to do his duty, and stay in the tower?" Humpty was silent.
In 1868, he went into Pantomime, toured "Humpty Dumpty," and for some twenty years afterwards kept the Pantomimic ball merrily rolling until his retirement at Chicago into private life. Denier made Harlequinade tricks a speciality.
"Bring her in," said Peppers. Then he seized the pitcher by its stone handle and raised it in the air. "Wine's a mocker," he began, "an' strong drink is ragin', but old Saint Paul said, 'A little for your stomach's sake. Here's lookin' at you, Humpty Dumpty. May you grow until your ears drag the ground." The hunchback lifted his pitcher. "Same to you, Parson," he said, "an' all your family."
"I 'd like to see what is behind that wall," said Humpty, "but I do n't think we shall be able to climb over it." "No, indeed," answered the brown egg, "but just before us I see a little hole in the wall, near the ground; perhaps we can crawl through that." They ran to the hole and found it was just large enough to admit them.
"I saw her go by a little while ago, and she 's much bigger than the Black Bantam." "Yes, and I 'm much bigger than you," replied Humpty. "But I 'm going out to see the world, and if you like to go with me I 'll take good care of you." "Is n't it dangerous for eggs to go about all by themselves?" asked Coutchie, timidly.
