After thinking out loud, “I will first marinade her!”
With huff and with puff, the Wolf blew the house down,
Then with jaggedy teeth he tore into poor Ada,
'Til nothing remained but her leopard-skin gown.

“What a sight!” drooled the gent, “I believe I smell bacon,
You look like a pig who’d taste good in a stew!”
“You’re the Wolf,” Ada squealed, “If I’m not much mistaken,
Great-Auntie McPig warned me all about you!”

“What about your new house? You can’t build it from chips!”
Squealed her sisters, “You’re really the greediest of pigs!”
“Don’t you fret!” Bessy belched, loudly licking her lips.
“I’ll go back to the woods, where I’ll build it from twigs!”

At the first stall, the eldest pig, Ada, jumped down,
"I am rich," she declared, "I can buy what I choose!"
And she spent her gold coin on a leopard-print gown,
A fur coat, a silk hat and a pair of red shoes.

"He has wire-wool whiskers and jaggedy teeth,
And his snout is curled up in a snarl and a sneer.
His right eye has a raggedy scar underneath
That is shaped like a star, and he's missing one ear."

'Even now, my old eye-bags
Have packed up their lies
And have gone off to live
On the old miller’s eyes,
Where they puff up like
Pastries and slowly turn sour,
And hang from his face like
Two sackfuls of flour.'
