THE ARROGANT FROG

AND

THE SUPERIOR BULL

Once, on a time and in a place Conducive to malaria,There lived a member of the race Of Rana Temporaria;  Or, more concisely still, a frog  Inhabited a certain bog.
A bull of Brobdingnagian size, Too proud for condescension,One morning chanced to cast his eyes Upon the frog I mention;  And, being to the manner born,  Surveyed him with a lofty scorn.
