Tweedledum and Tweedledee
Agreed to have a battle;
For Tweedledum said Tweedledee
Had spoiled his nice new rattle.
Just then flew down a monstrous crow,
As black as a tar-barrel;
Which frightened both the heroes so,
They quite forgot their quarrel.

(I. Opie and P. Opie, The Oxford Dictionary of Nursery Rhymes (Oxford
University Press, 1951, 2nd edn., 1997), pp. 418. )

Where is a big black crow when you need one?
