One hot, sunny day in July, a tramp was walking along a country road. He was chewing a piece of grass because he felt hungry. Suddenly, on the other side of hedge, he ssaw a pond with a large white duck swimming round and round on it. The tramp had a good idea. Immediately he jumped over the hedge and ran towards the duck. Soon he was sitting by the pond with a large pile of white feather beside him. Just then he heard a shout. The farmer was coming across the field, waving his arms. Hurriedly the tramp put the duck back into the water.
The farmer was very angry. He pointed to the pond and shouted, "What's the matter with my duck?" "Ah!" said the tramp quietly. "It wanted to go for a swim, and I'm looking after its clothes!"
