MISS MOUSER'S TEA PARTY.
The tea was ready very soon;
The table was a sight!
With tea and coffee, cakes and cream,
Muffins, and flowers, and light.
And all enjoyed the charming feast,
And chatted, laughed, and purred,
And not a single frown was seen,
And not a cross word heard.
Then after tea they played at games;
But one proud, silly cat,
Because she once had "seen the Queen,"
In lonely grandeur sat.
At blindman's buff, both old and young
Played with loud joke and shout,
And often pulled poor blindman's tail,
And twisted him about.
