H--h
Horrendously round and hairy,
that's Heironymous* Hedgehog the Third.
Heironymous behaves quite well;
he'll not do a thing that's absurd,
and he's never in a hurry;
he shuffles because he's well-furred.
His hype makes up for his lace of height.
He hollers and hoots 'til he's heard.
It's sure that whatever happens,
Heironymous has the last word!
* pronounced "Hy-ron'-eh-moos"
