February 9, 2011Czechs Mix
A beauty in Prague got a letter
From a grand master, seeking his better;
When she came to play chess,
She slipped out of her dress,
So Czech and Czech mated—he wed her!
____
In Prague a man’s debt was so deep
That he climbed up a high rise to leap.
He took a great dive
But he wound up alive;
The Czech bounced again—read and weep!
____
A victim of witchcraft in Prague
Had been turned from a prince to a frog.
A ravishing miss
Broke the spell with a kiss,
But this changed her (a lass!) to a dog.
