Long years ago in F1owerland
There dwelt lily tall;
She held her head In. scornfui sPriue
Above the flowers all.
Indeed I soon shall marry
A fairy prince so f1ne,
She often said, with regal arr,
land then all things are mine.
The flowers shook their pretty heads;
Such thoughts were great forsooth'
But seldom had a flower wed
With such a fairy youth.
One day tiger regab t6 dre wood,
And at the pretty lily's side
Enchanted long he stood.
Were much surprised to hear
Sweet lily had eloped with him.
The news spread far and near.
"A fairy prince, lnueeu! lucy Si'So'
WED rather far stay here
Than travel to the tigers home.
She'll sorry be, we fear
sweet lily, quite contented. though.
with choice that she had made
Became the tigers princess wife,
In gorgeous hues arrayed.
And that is how, Small Pitchers,
The tiger lily grew.
The children OF this tigers queen
Have spots and tigers hue.
