Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Section four of The Kitten's Gardener Verses by Oliver Herford.
This LibriVox recording is in the public domain. The Puncture.
When I was just a kitten small, they gave to
me a rubber ball to roll upon the floor. One
day I tapped it with my paw and pierced the
rubber with my claw. Now it will roll no more.

(00:24):
Good and bad kittens. Kittens, you are very little, and
your kitten bones are brittle. If you'd grow to cats respected,
see your play be not neglected. Smite the sudden spool
and spring upon the swift elusive string. Thus you learned
to catch the werry mister mouse or miss canary. That

(00:49):
is how in foreign places, fluffy cubs with kitten faces
where the mango waves sedately grow to lions large and stately.
But the kitten cats who snatch rudely for their food
or scratch grow to tom cat's gaunt and gorry. Theirs

(01:09):
is quite another story. Cats like these are put away
by the dread specia or to trusting aunts and sisters
sold as sable m sold as sable muffs and wristers anticipation.
When I grow up, I mean to be a lion

(01:31):
large and fierce to see. I'll muse so loud that
cook in fright will give me all the cream in sight,
and anyone who dares to say poor puss to me
will rue the day. Then, having swallowed him, I'll creep
into the guest room bed to sleep. End of Section four.
