Sit down, sit down, the soup will keep. You want the cat, I know you do, the young ones always want the cat and not the marriage. Well. Back in the village at the top of the valley there was a grey tom called Mossop who belonged to nobody, and he had three eyes, two in the usual place and one set high in the middle of his forehead like a door left open on a locked room.

The bride that year was Nell Garrow, a baker's daughter with flour in her eyebrows, and the groom was a horse-dealer named Tobias Quaile who had sworn on his mother's grave he had never once lied to a woman. Mossop sat on the wall outside the chapel the morning of the wedding, and when Tobias came up the path the cat stood and showed his two small fangs, and the third eye opened and shut like a shutter in the wind.

Nobody paid heed to a cat. Nell did, though. She stopped on the chapel step, looked down at the animal, and said, "Well, go on then, tell me." Mossop turned his head three ways, the way cats do when they have decided something, and walked off down the lane toward the river with his tail straight up like a stick of barley sugar.

Nell laughed and went in. Tobias didn't laugh at all, and that, my loves, is how I know the cat was right. Now pass the bread and mind the candle.
