Two white rabbits lived in a hutch in our back yard. One sunny morning said One to the Other, “Let us go out to see the world.”
So they did. They went up the alley way to the front garden. Here the grass was growing fresh and green.
“Ah,” said the Other to One, “the world was made for us. It is nothing but a big cabbage leaf. Taste it.”
Just as they put their noses down to nibble a bit of it, a dog poked his nose through the railing and said, “Bow wow.”
“Oh my, the world belongs to him,” they cried; “he may have it.”
And back they scurried to their safe hutch.
There they stayed, eating cabbage leaves and letting the world alone.
