Description

The Leopard always seems to feel

That he is ready for a meal

,Although he mostly comes by night

To satisfy his appetite.

And you will quickly guess, I think,

The things he likes to eat and drink.

He really is a dreadful trial,

He never takes the least denial.

And if you're out when he should call,

He waits for hours in the hall.

He is a very hungry beast,

And always ready for a feast.
