UNCLE EPHE'S ADVICE TO BRER RABBIT
Keep step, Rabbit, man!
Hunter comin' quick's he can!
H'ist yo'se'f! Don't cross de road,
Less 'n he'll hit you fur a toad!
Up an' skip it, 'fo' t's too late!
Hoppit—lippit! Bull-frog gait!
Hoppit—lippit—lippit—hoppit!
Goodness me, why don't you stop it?
Shame on you, Mr. Ge'man Rabbit,
Ter limp along wid sech a habit!
'F you'd balumps on yo' hime-legs straight,
An' hurry wid a mannish gait,
