MOTHER STORIES
51

The three little kittens found their mittens,
And they began to cry,
"O mother dear,
See here, see here
See! we have found our mittens."

"Put on your mittens,
You silly kittens,
And you may have some pie."
"Purr-r, purr-r, purr-r,
Oh, let us have the pie.
Purr-r, purr-r, purr-r."
 
The three little kittens put on their mittens,
And soon ate up the pie;
"O mother dear,
We greatly fear
That we have soil'd our mittens."

"Soiled your mitten!
You naughty kittens!"
Then they began to sigh,
"Mee-ow, mee-ow, mee-ow."
Then they began to sigh,
"Mee-ow, mee-ow, mee-ow."
