THIS is a fierce bad Rabbit; look at his savage whiskers, and his claws and his turned-up tail.
[10]
[11]
[12]
[13]
THIS is a nice gentle Rabbit. His mother has given him a carrot.
[14]
[15]
[16]
THE bad Rabbit would like some carrot.
HE doesn't say "Please." He takes it!
[20]
[21]
[22]
AND he scratches the good Rabbit very badly.

THE good Rabbit creeps away, and hides in a hole. It feels sad.
[26]
[27]
[28]
[29]
THIS is a man with a gun.
[30]
[31]
[32]
HE sees something sitting on a bench. He thinks it is a very funny bird!
[34]
[35]
[36]
HE comes creeping up behind the trees.
AND then he shoots—Bang!
[40]
[41]
[42]
THIS is what happens—
BUT this is all he finds on the bench, when he rushes up with his gun.

THE good Rabbit peeps out of its hole,
[50]
[51]
[52]
AND it sees the bad Rabbit tearing past—without any tail or whiskers!
