[b]The King's breakfast by A.A.Milne[/b]
The King asked the Queen, and the Queen asked the Dairymaid
[b]"Could we have some butter for the royal slice of bread ?"[/b]
The Dairymaid said [b]"Certainly ! I'll go and tell the Cow now before she goes to bed !"[/b]
The Dairymaid, she curtsied and went to see the Alderney
[b]"Don't forget the butter for the royal slice of bread !"[/b]
The Alderney, said sleepily, [b]You'd better tell his Majesty, that many people nowadays like Marmalade instead !"[/b]
The Dairymaid said [b]"Fancy !"[/b] and went to her Majesty, she curtsied most politely then turned a little red.
[b]"Excuse me your Majesty, for taking of the liberty, but Marmalade is tasty if very thickly spread !"[/b]
The Queen said [b]"Oh ! Really ?"[/b] and went to his Majesty
[b]"Talking of the butter for the royal slice of bread, many people nowadays think that Marmalade is nicer. Would you like to try a little Marmalade instead ?"[/b]
The King said [b]"Oh bother !"[/b] and then he sobbed [b]"Oh deary me ![/b] and went back to bed !
[b]"Nobody[/b] he said,[b]could call me a fussy man. I only want a little bit of butter for my bread !"[/b]
The Queen said [b]"There there !"[/b] and went to the Dairymaid
The Dairymaid said [b]"There there"[/b] and went to the shed.
The Cow said [b]"There there ! I didn't really mean it ! Here's milk for his Porridge AND butter for his bread ![/b]
The Queen took the butter and went to show his Majesty.
The King smiled and said [b]"Butter eh ?"[/b] and bounced out of bed !
[b]"Nobody !"[/b] he smiled as he kissed her tenderly.
[b]"Nobody !"[/b] he laughed as he slid down the bannister !
[b]"Nobody[/b] he said [b]Could call me a fussy man !.....But i DO like a little bit of butter on my bread !"[/b]
