## The words

Three little owlets In a hollow tree,  
Cuddled up together Close as could be.  
When the moon shone out And the dew lay wet,  
Mother flew about To see what she could get.  
She caught a little mouse So velvety and  
soft,  
She caught some little sparrows,  
And then she flew aloft  
To the three little owlets In a hollow tree,  
Cuddled up together Close as could be.  
“Tu - whoo,” said the old owl, “Isn’t this good  
cheer?” “Tu-whit,” said the owlets,  
“Thank you, mother dear, Tu-whit,  
tu-whit, tu-whit, tu-whit Tu-whoo!”
