"My kitty is purring / Upon the hearth rug / Rolled up in a bundle / Just like a great bug. / I wonder what kitty / Is thinking about; / What makes her so happy / I cannot find out.
"She has no hard lessons / To bother her brain, / No spelling and reading / To study in vain; / She ought to be happy / With nothing to do / But play all the morning / And I should be, too."
