Lesson:

1. Once there was a little kitty,


White as the snow;


In a barn he used to frolic,


Long time ago.

Ran to and fro;


For she heard the little kitty,


Long time ago.





3. Two black eyes had little kitty,


Black as a crow;


And they spied the little mousie,


Long time ago.

Paws soft as snow;


And they caught the little mousie,


Long time ago.

All in a row;


And they bit the little mousie,


Long time ago.

Mousie cried out 'Oh!'


But she slipped away from kitty,


Long time ago.
