  THE FROG  

Be kind and tender to the Frog,
    And do not call him names,
As "Slimy-Skin," or "Polly-wog,"
    Or likewise, "Uncle James,"
Or "Gape-a-grin," or "Toad-gone-wrong,"
    Or, "Billy-Bandy-knees;"
The Frog is justly sensitive
    To epithets like these.

No animal will more repay
    A treatment kind and fair,
At least, so lonely people say
Who keep a frog (and, by the way,
    They are extremely rare).

                                Hilaire Belloc.
