(limerick) The Fox And The Crane 1887

Rating: 5.0


You have heard how Sir Fox treated Crane:
With soup in a plate.When again
They dined, a long bottle
Just suited Crane's throttle;
And Sir Fox licked the outside in vain.

moral 'there are games that two can play'

author W H Linton... in limerick form
from Walter Crane's 'Baby's Own Aesop' (ill)
there are 56 fables in limerick form and I recommend
you google them and read them.This was just one.

Interesting, the story was known thru Aesop's tales, the limerick is marvelously writ.
