Puss in Boots
There
was
a
miller
,
who
left
no
more
estate
to
the
three
sons
he
had
,
than
his
Mill
,
his
Ass
,
and
his
Cat
.
The
partition
was
soon
made
.
Neither
the
scrivener
nor
attorney
were
sent
for
.
They
would
soon
have
eaten
up
all
the
poor
patrimony
.
The
eldest
had
the
Mill
,
the
second
the
Ass
,
and
the
youngest
nothing
but
the
Cat
.
The
poor
young
fellow
was
quite
comfortless
at
having
so
poor
a
lot
.
"
My
brothers
,
"
said
he
,
"
may
get
their
living
handsomely
enough
,
by
joining
their
stocks
together
;
but
for
my
part
,
when
I
have
eaten
up
my
Cat
,
and
made
me
a
muff
of
his
skin
,
I
must
die
with
hunger
.
"
The
Cat
,
who
heard
all
this
,
but
made
as
if
he
did
not
,
said
to
him
with
a
grave
and
serious
air
:
"
Do
not
thus
afflict
yourself
,
my
good
master
;
you
have
only
to
give
me
a
bag
,
and
get
a
pair
of
boots
made
for
me
,
that
I
may
scamper
thro
'
the
dirt
and
the
brambles
,
and
you
shall
see
that
you
have
not
so
bad
a
portion
of
me
as
you
imagine
.
"
Tho
'
the
Cat
's
master
did
not
build
very
much
upon
what
he
said
,
he
had
however
often
seen
him
play
a
great
many
cunning
tricks
to
catch
rats
and
mice
;
as
when
he
used
to
hang
by
the
heels
,
or
hide
himself
in
the
meal
,
and
make
as
if
he
were
dead
;
so
that
he
did
not
altogether
despair
of
his
affording
him
some
help
in
his
miserable
condition
.
When
the
Cat
had
what
he
asked
for
,
he
booted
himself
very
gallantly
;
and
putting
his
bag
about
his
neck
,
he
held
the
strings
of
it
in
his
two
fore
paws
,
and
went
into
a
warren
where
was
great
abundance
of
rabbits
.
He
put
bran
and
sow-thistle
into
his
bag
,
and
stretching
himself
out
at
length
,
as
if
he
had
been
dead
,
he
waited
for
some
young
rabbit
,
not
yet
acquainted
with
the
deceits
of
the
world
,
to
come
and
rummage
his
bag
for
what
he
had
put
into
it
.
Scarce
was
he
lain
down
,
but
he
had
what
he
wanted
;
a
rash
and
foolish
young
rabbit
jumped
into
his
bag
,
and
Monsieur
Puss
,
immediately
drawing
close
the
strings
,
took
and
killed
him
without
pity
.
Proud
of
his
prey
,
he
went
with
it
to
the
palace
,
and
asked
to
speak
with
his
Majesty
.
He
was
shewed
up
stairs
into
the
King
's
apartment
,
and
,
making
a
low
reverence
,
said
to
him
:
"
I
have
brought
you
,
sir
,
a
rabbit
of
the
warren
which
my
noble
lord
the
Marquis
of
Carabas
"
(
for
that
was
the
title
which
Puss
was
pleased
to
give
his
master
)
"
has
commanded
me
to
present
to
your
Majesty
from
him
.
"
