Cat story (8)

- Look at this. I wrote a poem, - my cat said one morning.

I love little pussy,
Her coat is so warm,
And if I don’t hurt her,
She’ll do me no harm.
So I‘ll not pull her tail,
Nor drive her away,
But pussy and I
Very gently will play:
She shall sit by my side,
And I’ll give her some food;
And pussy will love me
Because I am good.

- Hem! It seems that I read it in the English-child-book. It's a plagiarism. Isn't it? - I commented.
- So what? The English children won't know about it, - he lighted his pipe and chuckled away in silence. - Because in Russian this poem is entitled "A Cat Love Story".
