There’s everything nice,

Cake, cheese, jam, biscuits,

at Cottontail’s door?

Tap tappit! Tap tappit!

there is nobodv there,

But a present of carrots

put down on the stair.

it’s a little black rabbit

has never a cushion

to stick his pins in,

His nose is black and his

And he lives in an ash stump

over the way.

who lived in a shoe?

And had so many children

She didn’t know what to do?

a little shoe-house—

That little old woman

was surely a mouse!

guinea-pig,

Who brushed back his hair like

As blue as the sky—

And his whiskers and buttons

Were very big.

And in my lady’s chamber!

This pig stayed at home;

Wee! wee! wee!

I can’t find my way home.

How should she be fair?

In walks the little dog,

Says “Pussy! are you there?”

Mistress Pussy, how do you do?”

“I thank you kindly, little dog,

I fare as well as you!”

Three blind mice, three blind mice,

See how they run!

They all run after the farmer’s wife,

And she cut off their tails

with a carving knife,

Did ever you see such a thing

in your life

As three blind mice!

The Classic Tales. Volume VI - _29.jpg

Whose dog art thou?

“I’m little Tom Tinker’s dog,

Bow, wow, wow!”

We have a little garden,

A garden of our own,

And every day we water there

The seeds that we have sown.
