THE LOST RABBIT.
Bunny was a little rabbit, the youngest of a large family. His home
was in an old wood, where the trees were very high, and wild-flowers
grew in great abundance. His mother had given him to understand that
he must not stray away from her, lest he should get lost, and not be
able to find her.
But Bunny, like some young children, was self-willed. He thought his
mother was over-careful; and so, one day, when nobody was watching him,
he slipped away from her, and sat down amid the grass, under two high
beech-trees.
He heard his mother calling him, but took no notice of her call. It was
a warm summer day, and he fell asleep. Soon he was startled by the loud
barking of dogs. He woke up, and, oh, how frightened he was!
Luckily for him, the dogs did not come where he lay crouching; for their
masters were shooting birds, not rabbits.
