The Three Billy Goats Gruff (2)

After a while, the youngest billy goat Gruff said that he would be the first try to cross the bridge.

Trip, trap, trip, trap, went the fooves of the youngest billy goat Gruff on the wooden bridge.

Out popped the troll's ugly head.

He was so ugly that the youngest billy goat Gruff nearly fell down with fright.

" Who's that trip-trapping over my bridge ? " roared the troll.

The youngest billy goat Gruff spoke in a tiny voice.
" It's only me, the littlest billy goat Gruff, " he said.

" I'm going to the meadow to make myself fat. "

" Then I'm coming to gpbble you up, " roared the troll.

" Oh, No ! " please don't gobble me up, " said the youngest billy goat Gruff, in tiny voice.

" I'm far too little and not at all fat. Wait until the second billy goat Gruff comes along. He's much fatter than I am. "

" Very well, " said the troll.
" Be off with you !  I'll wait until the second billy goat Gruff ciomes along. "

So the younest billy goat Gruff crossed the bridge and skipped off into the meadow to eat the sweet grass.
