    "My feet's a revelation，

    And that's my guarantee.

    They're the worstest smellin' pair of feet

    On man or chimpanzee."

    "I've roved the wild world over，

    I've dueled1 with many a man，

    And I've seen 'em all just laid out flat，

    Like pullets in a pan."

    "Well， here's one good old biddy

    Can answer to your call！"

    It was ancient Myrna Poke2 leaped up，

    All wizened3， weak， and small.

    "I'm ready for a showdown，"

    The little lady cried.

    "Why passin' skunk4 onced smelled my feet，

    Flipped5 upside down， and died."
