Change a Letter III

[Tusky]

Is it because they like to dig up the grass with their paws?

[Jubal]

No, it's mostly when they rip the soil apart with their slavering, gaping maws.

[Tusky]

Well that will cause a big old mess on the lawn for anyone that mows it

[Jubal]

It's so muddy out there now they're using it to keep the sows on.

[Tusky]

It is. I'm going in to make rows of profiteroles

[Jubal]

Look out! The rocs may steal them!

[Glaurung]

And then put them down on a rock to eat?

[Tusky]

Ah, good point. Best put them under lock and key

[Jubal]

In the secret base below the loch?

[Tusky]

Maybe, although I heard that a lich may have got in there

[Glaurung]

That's probably better than lice.

[Tusky]

In any case I'd still rather not like going down there!

[Glaurung]

If they're not careful, they might get a pike in there too.

[Jubal]

Don't poke it, it has teeth.

[Glaurung]

It would be safer to use a pole.
