Just as quick as a cat up a walnut-tree

Just as quick as a cat up a walnut-tree

Just as quick as a cat up a walnut-tree



Just as quick as a cat up a walnut-tree. D'Urfey. To climb well and easily. To be alert and sudden.

Let the cat wink, and let the mouse run. For want of watching and care much is lost. Hazlitt's "Dodsley," i. 265. The first portion is in the interlude of "The World and the Child," 1522.

Like a cat he'll fall on his legs. To succeed, never to fail, always right.
