DFroggie went a courtin' and hAe did rDide… with a sword and a pistol bGy his sDide

He tDook Ms. mouse upAon his kDnee… and said Ms. mouse will you mGarry Dme?

DKimo cimo cAimo kee, wGay down yonder in a hoDllow tree
DOwl in the back and the buGmblebDee, kiAng con kitchie kitchie caDimeo
DWithout my uncle RaAt’s conDsent… for I would not marry the prGesidDent
Well, oDld rat laughed till he shAook his siDdes… to think Ms. Mousie would Gbe your brDide
