Two Little Mice:
There were two little mice, two gray little mice (not those of the nursery clock), who, once on a time, if there's truth in a rhyme, did "diccory, diccory, dock."
These were quite other mice, one foolish, one wise; ay, one, dear, was wiser by far than the other, who went--on marauding bent--round the rim of a blue china jar.
For he sat on a shelf by his own little self, and squeaked, "Little brother, it's plain--there, just as I said, gone--heels over head! He will ne'er go a-hunting again."
