Now Pretty Bunny wished for the hundredth time she had gone right home from school and truly she did not know what to do, for she had done none of these things, and I don’t know what in the world would have happened if the Run Away Bunny had not come bounding in at that very moment.
He said,
“I am hungry, I want honey,
I am back, Run Away Bunny.”
The strange Bunny put on her best spectacles and said,
“I did make a mistake I see,
But Bunnies look alike to me.”
For all that, she would not let Pretty Bunny go home in the dark, for evening had come.
