English poem
The Tree-Frog Pedigree
by John B. Tabb (1845–1909)
Our great ancestor, Polly Wog, With her cousin, Thaddeus Pole, Eloped from her home in an Irish bog, And crossing the sea on the "Mayflower's" log, At the risk of body and soul, Married a Frog; and thus, you see, How we come by a place in the family-tree And the family name, Tree-frog.
