A Bumble-King, with beak for its chief feature.

This new King Stork,

With a fierce, fussy appetite for work;

Not satisfied with fixing like a vice

Tried to extend his sway to pools and bogs,

And rule the Frogs!

But modern Frogdom, which had champions able,

Had read old-Æsop's fable,

And of King Stork's appearance far from amorous,
