Читать книгу Naughty Puppies - Unknown - Страница 1

There were two little puppy dogs,

“Tiny” named, and “Toodles,”

Who got into all kinds of scrapes,

Like little foolish noodles.

Tiny was a brownish dog,

And Toodles was a white one;

And Tiny had a cunning eye,

And Toodles had a bright one.

Tiny played all kinds of tricks.

For which his parents chid him:

And Toodles did—poor, foolish pup—

Whatever Tiny bid him.

“Come, Toodles,” Tiny said, one day,

“It's bright and pleasant weather,

We'll go and fight the turkey-cock:”

And off they went together.

But all their courage oozed away,

When the turkey-cock said “Gobble;”

They both turned tail, and scampered off,

As fast as they could toddle.

But turkey caught them up at last,

And read them both a lecture;

And how he served them with his beak,

I leave you to conjecture.

So home they went with drooping tails,

And pace so lame and jerky,
