The Peddlar of Swaffham



In the old days when London Bridge was lined with shops from one end to the other, and salmon swam under the arches, there lived at Swaffham, in Norfolk, a poor pedlar. Heâ€™d much ado to make his living, trudging about with his pack at his back and his dog at his heels, and at the close of the dayâ€™s labour was but too glad to sit down and sleep. Now it fell out that one night he dreamed a dream, and therein he saw the great bridge of London town, and it sounded in his ears that if he went there he should hear joyful news. He made little count of the dream, but on the following night it come back to him, and again on the third night.



Then he said within himself, â€œI must needs try the issue of it,â€ and so he trudged up to London town. Long was the way and right glad was he when he stood on the great bridge and saw the tall houses on right hand and left, and had glimpses of the water running and the ships sailing by. All day long he paced to and fro, but he heard nothing that might yield him comfort. And again on the morrow he stood and he gazedâ€”he paced afresh the length of London Bridge, but naught did he see and naught did he hear.



Now the third day being come as he still stood and gazed, a shopkeeper hard by spoke to him.



â€œFriend,â€ said he, â€œI wonder much at your fruitless standing. Have you no wares to sell?â€



â€œNo, indeed,â€ quoth the pedlar.



â€œAnd you do not beg for alms.â€



â€œNot so long as I can keep myself.â€



â€œThen what, I pray thee, dost thou want here, and what may thy business be?â€



â€œWell, kind sir, to tell the truth, I dreamed that if I came hither, I should hear good news.â€



Right heartily did the shopkeeper laugh.

The salesman decided to t
