Go each about our business;

The Sorceress
The cat went here and there
And the moon spun round like a top
And the nearest kin of the moon
The creeping cat looked up
Black Minnaloushe stared at the moon
For, wander and wail as he would,
The pure cold light in the sky
Troubled his animal blood

Summer: Cat on a balustrade
Summer: Cat on a balustrade
The Owl and the Pussy-cat went to sea
In a beautiful pea green boat,
They took some honey, and plenty of money,
Wrapped up in a five pound note.
The Owl looked up to the stars above,
And sang to a small guitar,
'O lovely Pussy! O Pussy my love,
What a beautiful Pussy you are,
You are, You are!
What a beautiful Pussy you are!'
