The next time I set my foot in this house, you shall be as saucy to me as you please.' And she flounced out of the house repeating, ' Take a spoon^ p'lg^ was what you meant to say.' Susan stood in amazement at the begin- ning of this speech, but the concluding word?^ explained to her the ni)j»tery. 196 SIMPLE SUSAN. Some years before this time, when Susan was a ve...ry little girl, and could scarcelr s{^eak plain, as she was eating a bason of bread and milk for her supper at the cottage door, a great pig came up, and put his nose into the bason. Susan was willing, that the pig should have some share of the bread and milk,' but as she eat with a spoon, and he with his large mouth, she presently discovered that he was likelv to have more than his share, and in a simple tone of expostulation she said to him, ' Take a poon^ pig«' * The saying became proverbial in the village ; Su- san's little companions repeated it, and ap- plied it upon many occasions, whenever any one claimed more than his share of any thing good.
