"I know you want to get back home," said Rabbit, "but after swallowing me, you'll be too big to wiggle under your rock."
"I sssssupposssse you're right," said Blacksnake.
"You best get under the rock, then open your mouth, and I'll hop in!"
"Yessssss," hissed Blacksnake. "That'sssss a good plan."
Rabbit dropped Blacksnake on the ground, and he slithered under his rock.
"Ready?" asked Rabbit.
"Ready!" said Blacksnake, opening his mouth wide.
"Ready!" said Blacksnake, opening his mouth wide.
Then Rabbit threw a handful of dirt in Blacksnake's mouth and ran off, laughing.
