“It’s shocking!” the poor monkey cried.
The duck rushed to save him – he tried
To rescue his friend,
But how would it end? –
Both monkey and duck are now fried.

As by each bend and reach the wind moans:
“O’er the dead men I blow
But nobody will know.”

And so I am using my brains:
Their hunger they’re sating;
They’ll need elevating;
I’m putting my money in cranes.

A nasty uncomfortable fate.

What’s missing behind;
I’m sure she would fit – so use Kate.

I wish to take you for my spouse!”
“Oh yes please!” said she.
Elated, then he
Proceeded to burn down the house.
