With a hop, skip and a jump
Sir Jasper did mount his fair steed
Waving aloft his red parasol
Preparing to do the dread deed.
With a jop, skip and a hump
Sir Jasper did stride 'cross the plain
Sniggering at all the hobbits
Who tickled the otters in vain
With a hop, jip and a grunt
Sir Jasper did swim up the stream
Safe in the knowledge that Icarus
Carved candles to light up his dream
And so did Sir Jasper do derring
As derring did herrings for tea
And thus with a bop, a lip and a skunk
The monkey declared: "It was he!"
