These four little two-horned elves

Are seated on coraline shelves.

The spot where they be

Is down under the sea,

And they've got the whole reef to themselves.

UNPLEASANT COMPANIONS

Here are two Wriggles from Wriggelum-town—

Their legs are sky-blue and their bodies are brown;

Their tails are a wonderful changeable hue;

I don't care to have them for playmates, do you?

THE GRENADIER

A soldierly fellow is he,

With swords as erect as can be.

His attendants are queer,

And so small, they appear

To barely reach up to his knee.
