outbreak of "hysteria' in dogs.)
Though I'm naught of vet, I have
frequently met

An emotional storm of the savagest

A most awful commotion and rouser.
Perhaps some may affirm that it's
caused by a germ

But this "crisis of nerves" which one
often observes fg
Can be truly described as hysterical.
Now a case of this kind you will
probably find
When you're out for walk in

AS you saunter or stride with the
dog at your side
1t develops without any warning.
For one moment he's there, with his
tail in the air,
Trotting gaily but not indiscreetly,
And the next he's ahead, seeing
fearfully red,
And his aspect is altered completely.
With a wild-flashing eye and
desperate cry
His bristles all stiffen and harden;
With a leap and bound he flies
over the ground
And he's after a cat in the garden.

Poor Towser's sad taint is this latest
