Though it was said that he practised lots
Tying himself into awful knots.
He punched the “What Is it?” in the head,
And cut the “Capillary Sisters” dead;
Placed the “Midget” under the ban
And wouldn’t shake feet with the “Armless Man”;
Kicked the “Cannibal” out of his road,
And said to the “Glass-Blower,” “You be blowed!”
Greater each day his importance grew,
’Till his head at length began swelling too.
