Mountain scenery.
The second highest mountain in Mexico is Popacatepetl. The story is told (by me) to Pickle and Pearl of a province and town just across the border from the U.S of A. in Mexico called Chihuahua (famous for its dogs) and Tijuana (famous for its taxis). Professor P. G. Tipps and his wife Polly were looking further South for a magical, mythical mountain near Poacatepetl sung about in legend and song vaguely remembered from their nursery days. They burroed donkeys from the natives and though the way was hard and the road be long they kept right on to the end of the road, singing. Suddenly there is was and with a cry of joy the Professor said,"Look, Polly, Putacetelon!
LITTLE FLY upon the snow/ Have you nowhere else to go?/ For if your tiny legs should freeze/ You'll be seeing Mephistopheles.
