It was just about then that the Old Man missed his mitten and decided to go back in search of it.
He walked and he walked and his Dog ran and ran until at last
he saw the mitten lying in the snow and moving!
"Bow-wow-wow!" went the Dog.
And the seven friends inside the mitten were so frightened that out
they jumped and ran away as fast as their legs could carry them.
Then the Old Man came up and he picked up his mitten and that was the end of that.
