"Cats and Tea"
By: Anonymous

My poppet, pray stop it and listen to me,
Remember this lesson off pat!
For Cats don't improve on the flavour of Tea
Nor Tea on the temper of Cat.

Try cream if your aim is to please the cat's purr,
Try water to wash away bugs;
Your teapot is valued; please take it away
And aim, not at Mogs, but at Mugs.
