“Been at it again, haven’t you, Hump?” Mrs Dumpty lamented. “Searching for a fresher egg, more golden and speckled than me.”
She bashed Humpty’s head with a metal spoon, cracked him wide open, just like you’d crack a boiled egg with soldiers.
All the King’s horses rushed to the crime scene, but Humpty was a well-rounded egg and his yolk flowed in abundance. All the King’s men couldn’t put him together again.
Hapless Mrs. Dumpty was arrested, duly sentenced by a jury of a dozen eggs to become scrambled.
