POT AND KETTLE

Оглавление

[To be read to little boys and girls who quarrel with each other.]

"Oho! Oho!" said the pot to the kettle,

"You're dirty and ugly and black!

Sure no one would think you were made of metal,

Except when you're given a crack."


"Not so! not so!" kettle said to the pot.

"'Tis your own dirty image you see.

For I am so clear, without blemish or blot,

That your blackness is mirrored in me."
