Page 99—Drawing Land

A Lesson in Drawing I.
Take a pencil, black or red.
Draw a little loaf of bread
On a piece of paper white—
Make the bread extremely light.
II.
Then, before your work you stop,
Draw a little loop on top,
And a satchel will be found
Such as ladies carry round.
III.
Then you may, my pretty dears,
Add a pair of little ears;
And, if Art is not in fault,
There's a bag of extra salt.
IV.
Pause, and in rapture fine,
Contemplate the great design—
Add a flowing tail, and that
Makes a perfect pussy cat.
