HOW TO TELL GOBLINS FROM ELVES

The Goblin has a wider mouth

Than any wondering elf.

The saddest part of this is that

He brings it on himself.

For hanging in a willow clump

In baskets made of sheaves,

You may see the baby goblins

Under coverlets of leaves.

They suck a pink and poldy foot,

as human babies often do,

And then they suck the other one,

Until they are sucking two.

And so it that goblins' mouths

Keep growing very round.

So you can't mistake a goblin,

When a goblin you have found.
