Happy Bunny took hold of Healthy Bunny, but they took too much room that way walking on the sidewalk, so Aunt Etiquette remarked,
“Happy Bunny, you mean no harm,
On the street don’t take another’s arm;
To properly walk, please don’t forget,
Is part of good street Etiquette;
Walk straight ahead, and I suppose
You learned long ago to turn out your toes.”
Happy Bunny and Pretty Bunny looked down to see if they were really turning out their toes. They told Aunt Etiquette that sometimes at home they practised walking straight and tried to stand so erect that they could walk about carrying a book on their heads without letting it drop.
They met some Bunnies who were dressed gayly and by dress and manner tried really to attract attention.
