Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Section seven of The Kitten's Garden of Verses by Oliver Herford.
This LibriVox recording is in the public domain. The Moon.
The moon is like a big round cheese that shines
above the garden trees, and like a cheese, grows less
each night, as though some one had had a bite.

(00:21):
The mouse delights to nibble cheese. The dog bites anything
he sees. But how could they bite off the moon
unless they went in a balloon. And human people, when
they eat, they think it rude to bite their meat.
They use a knife or fork or spoon. Who is
it then that bites the moon? The golden cat. Great

(00:44):
is the golden cat who treads the blue roof garden
o'er our heads, the never tired, smiling one the human
people call the sun. He stretches forth his paw at dawn,
and though the blinds are closely drawn, his claws peeped
through like rays of light to catch the fluttering bird

(01:04):
of night. He smiles into the hayloft dim and the
brown haze smiles back at him. And when he strokes
the earth's green fur, he makes the fields and meadows purr.
His face is one big golden smile. It measures round
at least a mile. How dull our world would be

(01:25):
and flat without the golden pussy cat An inquiry, A
birdie cocked his little head, winked his eye at me,
and said, say, are you a pussy willer or just
a kitty catty pillar? End of Section seven
