Or keener Sense of Humor showed,
Than when the Prince came home at night;
She’d change his door-key to a Toad,
And laugh to see it hop about,
Or turn the Key-Hole inside out.
Once, weary of her Pesterings,
The Prince apostrophized a bird,
Exclaiming, “Would I too had wings!”
It chanced the Fairy overheard,
And, with the very best intentions,
