[0:26] Speaker 1: the bed. I lie upon four corners to my bed.
[0:30] Speaker 1: Five angels there lie spread, two at my head, two
[0:34] Speaker 1: at my feet, one at my heart, my soul to
[0:36] Speaker 1: keep Puss Junior looked in at the window. On a
[0:41] Speaker 1: little white bed lay a pretty child. Now go to sleep,
[0:44] Speaker 1: my little one, softly whispered his mother. Snuggle down and
[0:48] Speaker 1: find a little dream, a little dream about wooly lambs
[0:51] Speaker 1: and white daisies. Then she tiptoed from the room, and
[0:55] Speaker 1: no sound was heard except her footsteps on the stairs.
[0:58] Speaker 1: Just as she looked through the open she saw Puss
[1:01] Speaker 1: slide down the post that held up the roof of
[1:03] Speaker 1: the porch. Don't worry, madam, he explained politely. I climbed
[1:08] Speaker 1: up to see if any one were at home. Nobody
[1:11] Speaker 1: answered the door bell but when I saw you, little boy,
[1:14] Speaker 1: I kept very very still, so as not to disturb him.
[1:19] Speaker 1: You were a good cat, she answered, with a sigh
[1:21] Speaker 1: of relief. I'm glad you were quiet. I am very tired, madam,
[1:26] Speaker 1: said Puss, for I've journeyed far to day. Would he
[1:30] Speaker 1: be asking too much? If I might sleep on your
[1:32] Speaker 1: front porch? You may sleep on a big red cushion
[1:36] Speaker 1: in the hall, she replied, And I will also give
[1:38] Speaker 1: you a bowl of milk. May I put my good
[1:42] Speaker 1: gray horse in your barn? Of course, she answered, you
[1:46] Speaker 1: will find plenty of hay and oats for his supper.
[1:49] Speaker 1: The good gray horse followed his small master to the
[1:51] Speaker 1: stable and was soon made comfortable for the night. Then
[1:54] Speaker 1: Puss locked the stable door and brought the key into
[1:57] Speaker 1: the house. Hang it up on the nail behind the door,
[2:01] Speaker 1: said the mother of the little child. And take off
[2:03] Speaker 1: your boots. They make so much noise on the kitchen floor.
[2:06] Speaker 1: I fear they will keep my little one awake. I
[2:09] Speaker 1: will gladly take them off, said Puss, and he placed
[2:11] Speaker 1: them behind the door underneath the big barn key. My
[2:15] Speaker 1: husband will be home very soon, she said, But if
[2:18] Speaker 1: you are very tired, I will give you your supper
[2:20] Speaker 1: at once. I would like it now, said Puss with
[2:24] Speaker 1: a weary sigh. And when he had finished, he jumped
[2:27] Speaker 1: upon the big red cushion and was soon fast asleep.
[2:32] Speaker 1: End of chapter thirty one.
