I Pretty Puss

Come pretty Cat!
   Come here to me!
I want to pat
  You on my knee.

Go, naughty Tray!
  By barking thus
You’ll drive away
  My pretty Puss.

II The Fairing

O Dear! what a beautiful Doll
  My sister has bought at the fair!
She says I must call it “Miss Poll,”
  And make it a bonnet to wear.

O, pretty new Doll! it looks fine;
  Its cheeks are all covered with red
But, pray, will it always be mine?
  And, pray, may I take it to bed?

How kind was my sister to buy
  This Dolly with hair that will curl
Perhaps if you want to know why,
  She’ll tell you, I’ve been a good girl.
