THE MILITARYFROG

Оглавление

THE MILITARY FROG

The Military Frog, as well you know,

Is the famed one who would a-wooing go.

And on the soldier's manly breast displayed,

He wins the heart of every blushing maid.

But, as a frog, I think he's incomplete,

He has no good hind legs that we may eat.


THE FEATHER BOA

This animal of which I speak

Is a most curious sort of freak.

Though Serpent would its form describe,

Yet it is of the feathered tribe.

And 'tis the snake, I do believe,

That tempted poor old Mother Eve,

For never woman did exist

Who could its subtle charm resist.
