The Duck’s Ditty written by Kenneth Grahame located in A Children’s Book of Verse, Illustrated by Eric Kincaid, Poems selected by Marjorie Rogers. (Brimax Books)
Converse converse or not says the Duck to the Quaille for I understand the tail is up and down round
Aquiver aquiver is the glee or the melee for a use is indeed the river of revenge to hide the hand of sin
They swim in a place of no-return in a larder of so-called clean is the bearer of a lie cool dim
We are nothing claims them all like the monotones I am I am nothing for you are the hate the hate with head down studying hard dabbling in this and that to be free
Fame a name to be made to despair or dispel the scandal she claim work hard for education none help except family as the glow got higher higher for a dream not just for self but for all
Tails down tails up we win we win anyway for I challenge them all
