Sohe said, “Good morning, Red Riding-Hood. Where areyou going?”The poor child, who did not know it was dangerousto talk to a wolf, answered, “I am going to see my grandmother,to take her a cake and a little pot of butter thatmy mother sends her.”160 Chapter 4 Forms and Patterns: Stories and Explanations304050“Does she live a great way off?” said the wolf.“Oh, yes!” said Little Red Riding-Hood, “she livesbeyond the mill you see right down there in the first housein the village.”“Well,” said the wolf, “I shall go and see her too. I shalltake this road, and you take that one, and let us see whowill get there first!”The wolf set off at a gallop along the shortest road; butthe little girl took the longest way and amused herself bygathering nuts, running after butterflies, and pluckingdaisies and buttercups.The wolf soon reached her grandmother’s cottage; heknocked at the door—rap, rap.“Who’s there?”“ ’Tis your grand-daughter, Little Red Riding-Hood,”said the wolf in a shrill voice, “and I have brought you acake and a little pot of butter that my mother sends you.”The good old grandmother, who was ill in bed, calledout, “Pull the bobbin, and the latch will go up!”The wolf pulled the bobbin and the door opened. Heleaped on the old woman and gobbled her up in a minute;for he had had no dinner for three days past.Then he shut the door and rolled himself up in thegrandmother’s bed, to wait for Little Red Riding-Hood.In a while she came knocking at the door—rap, rap.“Who’s there?”Little Red Riding-Hood, who heard the gruff voice ofthe wolf, was frightened at first, but thinking that hergrandmother had a cold, answered, “ ’Tis your granddaughter,Little Red Riding-Hood, and I have brought youa cake and a little pot of butter that my mother sends you.”well (wel) inter.: here, wellis used as an interjection,a word that expressesemotion.
