Owls are supposed to be so very wise, generally, that a foolish one is unusual, and you perhaps know that anything or anyone unusual is sure to be interesting to the wise." The owl flapped its wings again, muttering these words: "It's hard to be a glassy cat-- No cat can be more hard than that; She's so transparent, every act Is clear to us, and that's a fact." "Have you noticed my pink brains ?" inquired Bungle, proudly.

"You can see 'em work." "Not in the daytime," said the donkey.

"She can't see very well by day, poor thing.

But her advice is excellent.

I advise you all to follow it." "The owl hasn't given us any advice, as yet," the boy declared.
"No?
Then what do you call all those sweet poems ?" "Just foolishness," replied Ojo.
