PRUDENT PUSS.
Bold Joe and Jim, and terrier Tim,Went out to chase their prey;They chased her hard across the yard,And then she got away.The ducks in vain expressed disdainOf Pussy’s coward flight;They were three to one, so she chose to run,And I think she did quite right.The dogs outside implored, defied;Puss answered not a word;When they’d gone in despair, she came out of her lair,And laughed in her sleeve and purred.
