Jack the Buttermilk
Jack was a boy who sold buttermilk. One day he met a witch. She asked him to give her some of his buttermilk for free. “If you don’t give me some buttermilk,” said the witch, “I’ll put you into my bag and carry away”. Jack refused to give the witch any of his buttermilk, so the witch put him into a bag that she carried over her shoulders.
