The Three Little Pigs:

as it was originally passed into English folklore in 1620

 

The second little pig also got up early in the morning and began collecting more poles for his house. By noontime he had cut down and dragged more long sticks to his house, and by the end of the day, he had notched four more poles and put them onto his house.

The third little pig had also arisen early and walked through the woods to the creekbank where he had found clay. He spent the
entire day digging clay out of the ground for his bricks. By the end of the day, he had a pile of clay as tall as he was, but he had
still built nothing and so he walked over to visit the second
little pig.

 

The second little pig greeted the third little pig as he approached, and called out to him,"Look how much work I have done on my stick house!" Whereupon the third little pig harrumpfed and once again began talking about what a fine house he was building, and how crude the stick house would look.

 

Arising early on the third day, the first little pig went to the house of the second little pig, and said, "Little Pig, if you will help me gather grasses today and help me tie it into bundles on my house, we will be able to complete my house by sunset, and then I will share my house with you until you have finished building your stick house."
