    going into the wood, and one on
    the side going out of it.
    Tom said to himself :-
    "One shoe is no good to me," and
    he left it there.
    When he saw the other shoe, he
    tied his sheep to a tree, and
    went back for the other shoe.
    When he was gone the boy took
    the sheep and won the bet.
