Percy Buttons

I have just moved to a house in Bridge Street. Yesterday a beggar knocked at my door.

He asked me for a meal and a glass of beer. In return for this, the beggar stood on his head and sang songs.

I gave him a meal. He ate the food and drank the beer.

Then he put a piece of cheese in his pocket and went away. Later a neighbor told me about him.

Everybody knows him. His name is Percy Buttons.

He calls at every house in the street once a month and always asks for a meal and a glass of beer.
