A hungry cat is searching for some thing to eat. She sees a little grey mouse sitting close to his house.
I desire to catch that little mouse, - says the hungry cat.
She sits down and begins to cry "mew, mew, mew".
The little grey mouse jumps up to run into his house, however the cat sits nonetheless and mews again.
She is sitting still, - thinks the mouse.
She does not favor to capture me. I shall not run away.
Mew, mew, mew, - says the cat again.
Why are you crying? - asks the mouse.
See, I have a penny in my hand.
Good, you are lucky. That's nothing to cry about, - says the mouse.
The hungry cat comes nearer.
Oh, little mouse, I shall get some meat with the penny. I shall prepare dinner it and have it for supper.
Good, you are lucky. That's nothing to cry about.
The hungry cat comes nearer and nearer.
There lives a hungry canine in this house. He will eat all the meat.
Poor Pussy, - says the mouse. - What will you devour then?
You, - cries the cat and jumps at the little gray mouse.
But the mouse is too quick. He jumps into his little house earlier than the cat can say another "mew".
No, no, sly Pussy, - says the mouse. - You will no longer devour me. You should first catch me. two
