2. Tom guides a horse from its ear, attracts two strangers, and persuades his father to sell him before escaping into a mouse hole.
3. He joins two thieves but deliberately shouts inside the parson’s house, waking the cook and driving the thieves away.
4. While Tom sleeps in hay, a cow swallows him; his cries prompt the frightened parson to order the cow killed.
