Cat and the Cook
Some cook , read and write,
From the hut ran his
In the tavern ( he was a devout rules
And on this day at Qom funeral feast Rules)
A home guard edibles from mice
Cat left .
But what does he returned, he sees ? on the floor
Scraps of cake ; and Vaska Cat in the corner ,
Crouching behind a barrel of vinegar ,
Purring and growling , working on kurchonkom .
& quot; Oh, you glutton ! ah , the villain ! -
Here Vaska Cook rebukes -
Do not be ashamed eh walls you, not just people?
(A Vaska still kurchonka clears . )
How! Cat having been honest until now ,
Sometimes, for example you smirenstva demonstrate by -
And you ... so hot, what a shame !
Now all the neighbors will say:
& quot; cat Vaska knave ! Cat Vaska thief !
And Vaska de , not just to the kitchen ,
Let not necessary and the courtyard,
How greedy wolf into the fold :
He spoilage , he plague, the plague of these places it ! & Quot;
(A Vaska listens, yes eats. )
Here is my rhetorician , giving free rein to the words within ,
Could not find the end moralistic ,
But what then? While he was singing it ,
Cat Vaska all eaten hot .
And I would cook another
Ordered on the wall hack to death :
So there speeches do not spend in vain ,
Where you need to use the power .
