Ronald Ross, Fables and satires, Londres, Harrison, 1928, p.4

The Frog, the Fairy, and the Moon.

The Frog that loved the Changing Star

Was workship’d by a Fairy,

Who made for him a waistcoat trim

Of silk and satin, soft and airy,

Button’d with eyes of fireflies

In manner military.

And more to move his languid love

A crimson cap she made him,

According to many, plumed with antennae

Of moths that rob the flowert’s honey ;

And with her kisses, lover’s money,

For that she gave she paid him.

She fed him, too, till he was blue,

With endearing terms on caddis worms ;
