THE FROG & THE BULL

Said the Frog, quite puffed up to the eyes,
“Was this Bull about me as to size?”
“Rather bigger, frog-brother.”
“Puff, puff,” said the other,
“A Frog is a Bull if he tries!”

With soup in a plate. When again

Just suited Crane’s throttle;
And Sir Fox licked the outside in vain.
