TIBBY AND HER KITTEN.
Kit has not a sister,
Nor has she a brother;
And she is the darling
Of Tibby, her mother.
She stands there and purrs
With motherly pride,
While dear little kitty
Is close by her side.
T'is pleasant to watch them—
Now they are at play,
With a round ball between them
Just rolling away.
If puss could not play
'Twould be a great pity;
'Tis only one year
Since she was a kitty.
How funny it seems,
That she is a mother;
'Tis only one year
Since she and her brother
Were found in the stable
One warm summer day,
