BILLY BUNNY AND MRS. BLACK CAT.

Awake, awake, 'tis early morn. The cow is climbing the stalks of corn, The little bird is beating an egg, And the rooster is dancing about on one leg, And the pig is trying on her very recent bonnet, With a little black bow and a black cherry on it.

Uncle Lucky rolled over in bed and then he got up and wiggled his noseand his left ear, and after that he was so wide awake that he didn'twant to get back into bed, as I did, when I woke up this morning.
