That wood was full of rabbit holes; and in the neatest, sandiest hole lived Benjamin's aunt and his cousins Flopsy, Mopsy, Cottontail, and Peter. Old Misses Rabbit was a widow; she earned a living by knitting rabbit wool mittens and muffs. I once bought a pair at a bazaar. She also sold herbs, and rosemary tea, and rabbit tobacco which is what we call lavender.
