Way leading on to way as it does, I somehow ended up watching this video of President Trump reading the lyrics to the 1969 Al Wilson song "The Snake."
A woman finds a "poor, half-frozen snake," takes it in, and feeds it honey and milk until it revives. The snake of course repays her kindness by biting her, and when she protests,
"Oh, shut up, silly woman," said the reptile with a grin.
"You knew damn well I was a snake before you took me in!"
Just after watching this, I sat down to prepare for the day's English classes, the first of which is a basic phonics course for very young children. Their book provides this passage to exemplify the "long a" sound.

I notice the snake is looking over the top of the cake, at Kate herself - and is licking his 'lips' at the prospect of a forthcoming meal.
