"Alms for my paw"
Said the Pussycat to the Elmtree
"Let me climb besides the Owl,
So we both this dawn shall see."
--------------
Under hedges and through burrows,
Deep and narrow trenches,
Grassy nooks,
And furrows,
The two of them took turns setting pace,
An incongruous pair agasinst the human race.
