Two little kittensTwo little kittens one stormy night,Began to quarrel, and then to fight.
The old woman took the sweeping broom,And swept them both right out of the room .
So they lay and shivered beside the doorTill the old woman finished sweeping the floor .

They found it much better that stormy night,To lie by the fire, than to quarrel and fight.
