Give

“
The
baby
’
s
asleep
,
”
said
his
mother
.
“
Then
give
him
to
me
,
and
I
’
ll
lay
him
down
.
”
But
as
Diamond
took
him
,
he
woke
up
and
began
to
laugh
.
For
he
was
indeed
one
of
the
merriest
children
.
And
no
wonder
,
for
he
was
as
plump
as
a
plum
-
pudding
,
and
had
never
had
an
ache
or
a
pain
that
lasted
more
than
five
minutes
at
a
time
.
Diamond
sat
down
with
him
and
began
to
sing
to
him
baby

him

the
merriest
fellows
that
bake
their
cake
with
the
water
they
shake
out
of
the
river
flowing
for
ever
and
make
dust
into
clay
on
the
shiniest
day
to
build
their
nest

When
Diamond
’
s
rhymes
grew
scarce
,
he
always
began
dancing
the
baby
.
Some
people
wondered
that
such
a
child
could
rhyme
as
he
did
,
but
his
rhymes
were
not
very
good
,
for
he
was
only
trying
to
remember
what
he
had
heard
the
river
sing
at
the
back
of
the
north
wind
.
DIAMOND
became
a
great
favourite
with
all
the
men
about
the
mews
.
Some
may
think
it
was
not
the
best
place
in
the
world
for
him
to
be
brought
up
in
;
but
it
must
have
been
,
for
there
he
was
.
At
first
,
he
heard
a
good
many
rough
and
bad
words
;
but
he
did
not
like
them
,
and
so
they
did
him
little
harm
.
He
did
not
know
in
the
least
what
they
meant
,
but
there
was
something
in
the
very
sound
of
them
,
and
in
the
tone
of
voice
in
which
they
were
said
,
which
Diamond
felt
to
be
ugly
.
So
they
did
not
even
stick
to
him
,
not
to
say
get
inside
him
.
He
never
took
any
notice
of
them
,
and
his
face
shone
pure
and
good
in
the
middle
of
them
,
like
a
primrose
in
a
hailstorm
.
At
first
,
because
his
face
was
so
quiet
and
sweet
,
with
a
smile
always
either
awake
or
asleep
in
his
eyes
,
and
because
he
never
heeded
their
ugly
words
and
rough
jokes
,
they
said
he
wasn
’
t
all
there
,
meaning
that
he
was
half
an
idiot
,
whereas
he
was
a
great
deal
more
there
than
they
had
the
sense
to
see
.
And
before
long
the
bad
words
found
themselves
ashamed
to
come
out
of
the
men
’
s
mouths
when
Diamond
was
near
.
The
one
would
nudge
the
other
to
remind
him
that
the
boy
was
within
hearing
,
and
the
words
choked
themselves
before
they
got
any
farther
.
When
they
talked
to
him
nicely
he
had
always
a
good
answer
,
sometimes
a
smart
one
,
ready
,
and
that
helped
much
to
make
them
change
their
minds
about
him
.
One
day
Jack
gave
him
a
curry
-
comb
and
a
brush
to
try
his
hand
upon
old
Diamond
’
s
coat
.
He
used
them
so
deftly
,
so
gently
,
and
yet
so
thoroughly
,
as
far
as
he
could
reach
,
that
the
man
could
not
help
admiring
him
.
“
You
must
make
haste
and
,
grow
”
he
said
.
“
It
won
’
t
do
to
have
a
horse
’
s
belly
clean
and
his
back
dirty
,
you
know
.
