Children's books: The Peter Pan Alphabet
C is the Crocodile Creepy who ate
The right hand of Hook and covets
its mate
He makes a loud ticking wherever he
goes
For he swallowed a Clock (To kill time
I suppose)
From Oliver Herford's The Peter Pan Alphabet (1907) based on J. M. Barrie's Peter Pan. The entire book can found at Internet Archive.
