Soon, the gutter opened up into a river and there as the boat flew over, a fish thought of the tin-solider as a great meal to be had. But no-one could stop the boat or the soldier who still stood firm. “Stop him!” yelled the rat on top the gushing water’s roars. The tin-solider had none, and so he kept mum. “If only I had the lady with me, it could be twice as dark and I still would not care!” Inside the gutter, a big rat popped and asked for his passport. The tin soldier stood steady and firm, not once flinching as his delicate boat pitched and turned and whirled and made his head spin.Īll of sudden, the drain poured into an open canal and the tin-soldier was engulfed with darkness. Since it had rained heavily earlier, the drain ran thick and fast. These boys made a paper boat and put the tin soldier in it and set it down a drain. And it is not certain whether it was the bogey’s doing or a simple chance encounter of misfortune, the one-legged tin soldier fell out of the window and into the hands two naughty boys. The next morning, the boy placed the one-legged tin soldier near the window. ![]()
