Cockaleekie
Now listen Noble is yours the pen That can do justice to the hen? Like Princess Di she goes her way, Laying foundations every day, Though not for public buldings, yet For cockaleekie, cake and omelette, Or if too old for such a use Eggs can be used to fling abuse.. .
More or less as Oliver Herford has it in `The Hen '.
