THREE YOUNG RATS by ANONYMOUS

First Line: THREE YOUNG RATS WITH BLACK FELT HATS
Last Line: "BUT SUDDENLY IT CHANCED TO RAIN, / AND SO THEY ALL WENT HOME AGAIN"
Subject(s): RATS;
THREE young rats with black felt hats,
Three young ducks with white straw flats,
Three young dogs with curling tails,
Three young cats with demi-veils,
Went out to walk with two young pigs
In satin vests and sorrel wigs;
But suddenly it chanced to rain
And so they all went home again.
