THE NAUGHTY PUPPIES.
Tiny, Toodles, and the Turkey.
"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,
And said, "Next time we'll tease the hens,
And leave alone the turkey."
