Mary. To make a friend of you.
Pussy. I thank you, Miss, for your kind words,
And know they’re gently said;
But truth to speak,
I do not like
That thing upon your head.
For much it looks to me as though
Your very furry hat,
So soft and fine, might once have been
A very furry cat. Me-ow!
A very furry cat.

Camel. Seek mine, too. I have had these sacks of gold on my back for a long time. I cannot lie down. Seek mine, too.
Man. I will.
Tiger. Pray, sir, where are you going?
Man. I am going to the Wise Man to seek my fortune.
