One morning when a woman was sweeping her house, she found a penny. "What shall I do with this little penny?" she asked. "I will go to market and buy a little pig."

She went on a little farther. Walking down the road she met a dog. So she said to the dog, "Dog, dog, bite pig. Pig won't jump over the gate.
