A Catch on Midnight Cats:
I: Ye Cats that at midnight spit Love at each other
who best feel the tattered Fur
if the business of Love be no more to Pur.
II: Old Lady Grimalkin with Gooseberry Eyes,
when a Kitten knew Love fit's soon o'er,
Pus, Pus last not long but turns to Catwhore.
III: Men ride many miles, Cats tread many Tiles,
both hazard, both House or a Wall keep their Feet,
mount their Tails, mount their Tails and away.
A Cat Catch by R. Brown:
I: We Cats when assembled at Midnight together,
for innocent Puring, Puring, for innocent Puring,
puring, in Moonshiney weather.
II: If Dogs be in kennel, all fast in their straw,
we march, and we meaw, meaw, meaw
whitout scratch or a claw.
III: But if they suprise us, and put us to flight,
we fret, fret, and we spit, fret fret, spit, spit,
give a squall, squall and good.
