A Wicked Cat.

OF Pussy, with the bushy tail,
Are you a wicked cat2
You grind your claws upon a nail,
And walk as slow as any snail,
You are so very fat.
You wash your whiskers with your feet;
Your tongue is rough and red
And looks as IL II tasted meat,
Yet all ever see you eat
Is pure white milk and bread
found upon our grass to-day
A brides tail and wing;
If you did kill 1t. Pussy Gray,
And eat 1t up, I'll only say,
You are wicked thngl
Suppose a hungry bear this eve
Along the street should pass,
And. laughing in his hairy sleeve,
Should eat you up and only leave
Your tail upon the grass?
You'd think he was a cruel bear;
think you're cruel too;
/ know I'd starve before I'd tear
A birdie with my claws, and glare,
And eat him up, like you.
