Englebert Humperduck

A famous story from over a hundred years ago, told by Englebert, about two small beans, Emma and Archie who got lost in a wood, well not lost, they were led there by Snowy White. She left these poor beans to the mercy of a gingerman and a spitfur that wears boots, but anyways, to get shortly back here, this is a magical bit from the story as told by old Humperduck. The names have been changed to protect Archie and Emma.

"Little duck, little duck, dost thou see,
Hansel and Gretel are waiting for thee?
There's never a plank, or bridge in sight,
Take us across on thy back so white."

We're all descended from that duck, well I know I am, you may not be quite as evolved. Cool story though.
