LOVE IN A TREE.
.A tree toad loved a she toad
That Uvod up in a tree:
She was n 3-toed tree toad,
But -a 2-tocil toad was he.
The 2-toed treo toad tried..to win
The she toad’s friendly nod;
For the 2-toed tree toad loved the ground
That the 3-toed tree toad trod.

He couldn’t plenso her whim;
In her tree toad bower.
With the V-toed power.
The she tond vetoed him.
