Susan wanted to go and pick berries next day. Bunny asked his mother if he might go too, and she said he might, if he would try to be a good little rabbit after this. Bunny promised, and then he went with Susan to the gate.

As Mr. Bunny Cotton-Tail

Went walking down the street,

It was his great good fortune

Susan Cotton-Tail to meet.

Said Susan, “My dear Bunny,

If you would only try

To open wide your parasol,

Your fur would keep quite dry!”
