Description:

A cat with a mouse in its mouth stands on its hind legs in a posture reminiscent of a rope dancer. The full verse below the main illustration goes as follows:

Yes, she fell off the house
Running after a mouse;
But, as life is sweet,
Before you could count One, Two, Three, she came on her feet.
