The Seven-League Boots (12) [Seven-League Boots]

Seven-League Boots (12)

" Be quiet ! " exclaimed the ogre, " they will be more succulent now. "

" But you still have so much meat here, " said is wife.
" Lookーa calf, two sheep and half a pig ! "

" You are right, " agreed the ogre.
" Give them a good meal so they do not get thin, and put them to bed. "


The kind woma was delighted and cooked the children a nice supper, but they were so terrified they could not eat a mouthful.

As for the ogre, he was so delighted to have such a delicacy to offer his friends that he drank a dozen bottles of wine, which made him dizzy and he had to go to bed.

Now, the ogre had seven young daughters.

The little ogresses were all very robust and had ruddy complexions because they ate fresh meat like their father.

But they had little round grey eyes, hooked noses and huge mouths with long teeth, very sharp and very widely spaced.
