Oh my, a limerick summary of Æsop's fable "The North Wind and the Sun" (as I first learned it). And how old is that page? A century or more would be my guess.

It is neatly done, isn't it, the limerick summary? :)

Yes, that would be my guess too; I can ask the OP, if you'd like?

I think this is the source

Walter Crane, "The Baby's Own Aesop", 1887.
