A kiss when I wake in the morning, A kiss when I go to bed,

A kiss when I burn my finger,

A kiss when I hurt my head.

A kiss when my bath is over,

A kiss when my bath begins;
My mamma is full of kisses,
As full as nurse is of pins.

A kiss when I play with my rattle, A kiss when I pull her hair; She covered me over with kisses

The day I fell from the stair.

A kiss when I give her trouble,

A kiss when I give her joy; There's nothing like mamma's kisses For her own little baby boy.

It took the three boys to catch it. At last both of the rabbits were put into their new house.

Frank thought the box made a very nice house, but the rabbits did not think so.

The children fed them with clover, lettuce, and other plants; but

the rabbits liked better to run about the yard and pick out their own food.

One morning when Frank went out to feed them, he found they were not in their house.

But the rabbits were not in the bedroom when Frank went to feed them.
