Favourites of a nursery of seventy years ago : and some others of later date (1916)
Forbes, Edith Emerson · Boston : Houghton · leaf 190
TWO LITTLE DOGS Two little dogs were basking in the cinders,Two little cats were playing in the windows,When two little mice popped out of a hole,And up to a fine piece of cheese they stole.The two Httle dogs cried, Cheese is nice!But the two little cats jumped down in a trice.And cracked the bones… … A CAT CAME FIDDLING A CAT came fiddling out of a barn.With a pair of bag-pipes under her arm:She conld sing nothing but fiddle-de-dee,The monse has married the bnmble-bee;Pipe, cat, — dance, mouse,—We 11 have a wedding at our good house. / LOVE SIXPENCE 173
