" Poor little Downy laid bewailing her sad misfor- tune in the cold damp grass, determining never to go home to her little tyrant again, so angry was she at his cruel conduct. 'Ah! foolish mouse that I was, (said she), why did not I continue to live by myself when I was so happy ! T might have known how he would have behaved to me, but I will never return to him, he may enjoy by himself that food which he loves so much more than he does me, ungrateful that he is!' In this manner she was utterin...g her com- plaints, when she heard a soft padding step behind her, and a mournful noise made her turn round, and A FIELD-MOUSE. 33 she beheld her penitent Silket, (for it was him) who advancing 1 with a sorrowful air, humbly besought her forgiveness, and rubbed his velvet cheek in an imploring" manner against her's; his lively brown eyes were now troubled, and very sorrowful. Downy could not resist his beseeching- looks, but forgave him for all his past offences, and took him once more into favour, on his promising to be good in future and never to bite her ears or tail again.
