SERVE HER RIGHT.

HERE was a little Cat, such a nice little Cat,
But she was such a horrid little glutton,

That they put her in the pot when the water

grew hot,

And they boil'd her into mutton.

HERE lived an old man in a garret,
So afraid of a little tom-cat,
That he pulled himself up to the ceiling,
And hung himself up in his hat.

And for fear of the wind and the rain
He took his umbrella to bed-
I've half an idea, that silly old man

Was a little bit wrong in his head.

WO Cats sat on a garden-wall,

For an hour or so together;

And first they talked about nothing at all,

And then they talked of the weather.

The little Pussy-cat, afraid of the cold,
Had a wrapper to wrap her chin in ;
But the big Pussy-cat, more silly than that,
Kept her tail in a bag of linen.

Said the little Pussy-cat to the big Pussy-cat, "You've not very much to ail of;"

And so angry at that was the big Pussy-cat, That she bit the little one's tail off.

DEAR me, what a pickle I am in!

I've lost my pocket-handkerchief, and found

double chin:

O dear me ! trouble's never done,

I've dropt all my h's and I can't find one.
