"Are you lost?" asked the sheep in the front (not the one who'd gone to sleep). I'd gone to get some air and walk... a strange question - to hear this stray creature talk! "I'm a man and know quite a lot (if I say so). I've learned things that you cannot. I know about countries and beliefs, and also, borderlines, property, and thieves." The sheep just smiled and smelled a flower. I stopped speaking and whiled away a sunny hour. I wonder why this sheep did me, accost. Is it not him, but me, who's lost?

Lol. Sheep seem very content. I think I'll stay a little edgy.

That's a good way to avoid becoming mutton!
