I love little pussy, her coat is so warm;
And if I don't hurt her she'll do me no harm.

More quotes by Ann Taylor

'Tis a credit to any good girl to be neat,
But quite a disgrace to be fine.

Who ran to help me when I fell,
And would some pretty story tell,
Or kiss the place to make it well?
My mother.

For God, who lives above the skies,
Would look with vengeance in his eyes
If I should ever dare despise
My mother.

My Mother (1804)

Where no sun shines through the live-long day,
Because of the blue-wreathed mist,
Where the cockatrice creeps her foul egg to lay,
And the speckled snake has hissed

And Venus sets ere Mercury can rise.
