Moral. Beware of too sublime a sense Of your own worth and consequence. The man who dreams himself so great, And his importance of such weight, That all around, in all that's done, Must move and act for him alone, Will learn in school of tribulation The folly of his expectation. 148 THE CAT William Cowper.
THE CAT- A Wanderer Every one is aware that a perfectly comfortable, well-fed cat will occasionally come to his house and settle there, deserting a family by whom it is la- mented, and to whom it could, if it chose, find its way back with ease. This conduct is a n^stery which may lead us to infer that cats form a great secret society, and that they come and go in pur- suance of some policy connected with education, or perhaps with witchcraft. We have known a cat to abandon his home for years. Once in six months he would return, and look about him with an air of some contempt. " Such," he seemed to say, " were my humble beginnings." 149 Andrew Lang.
