The Dukes Daughter

Once there was a handsome duke 

Who had a daughter named Suke

She was a lovely thing despite her name

Her hair was a lovely golden mane

One day while walking down the road 

She met up with an ugly toad

The toad jumped onto her dress

Making her scream and nothing less

The toad, startled hopped away 

and we talk of her to this day

for her father disowned her 

for the humiliation she caused the handsome sir

she fled to the English countryside 

where she had to wear a dress made of hide 

no longer did she own beautiful things

no silk or gold or diamond rings

but care she did not

for she had learned to use a pot

she learned to sew, bake and cook 

for a young lad had her on his hook

they not long after tied the knot 

and a little blue cottage they bought

never would she have thought on that fateful day 

the joy and adventure the toad would bring

and all to the dukes loss who now had no heir

for her decendants who do not know 

a beautiful palace awaits them there
