Cruelty To Animals

How, George! you’re in Disgrace once more, What’s this? a tearful Eye, The tell-tale Feathers on the Floor, Show me the Reason why.

Why did you free Amelia’s Bird Where Harriet’s Tabby pounced? You selfish Boy, upon my Word I’ll have you soundly trounced.

Your little Cousin’s Tears now see: Her pretty Songster’s dead; A Child so mischievous must be Chastis’d, and sent to Bed.
