The Butter Betty Bought

________________________________________________
Title:     The Butter Betty Bought
Author: Carolyn Wells [More Titles by Wells]

Betty Botta bought some butter;
"But," said she, "this butter's bitter!
If I put it in my batter
It will make my batter bitter.
But a bit o' better butter
Will but make my batter better."
Then she bought a bit o' butter
Better than the bitter butter,
Made her bitter batter better.
So 'twas better Betty Botta
Bought a bit o' better butter.







[The end]
