The Fairy Godmother-in-law

It is not always well to placeUnbounded Faith in Fairy Lore,Believing that in every caseThey all lived Happy evermore.Stranger than Fiction though we deemThe Truth, it does not follow, too,That Fairy Tales, because they seemStill Stranger, must be still more True.Far be it from me to assailThe Truthfulness of Fairy Writ,But let us take a Well-Known TaleAnd see what really came of it.
