"What is the matter?" she asked.
"I went to the meadow to eat clover," said Billy. "The bees were there and one stung me on the nose."
"Rub your nose in the dirt and that will make it feel well again," said Mother Rabbit.
Billy put some dirt on his nose, and the pain soon went away.
Then Mother Rabbit took him to a place where the grass was tender.
He ate all the dinner he wanted and then went home to take a nap.
Bunny and Bobtail ate their dinner in the meadow.
The clover was so sweet and tender that they wanted to eat it all.
They nibbled and nibbled and nibbled.
But they were both very careful not to nibble any of the blossoms where the bees were gathering honey.
