The initials "H. M." before his name meant "Highly Magnified," for this Woggle-Bug was several thousand times bigger than any other woggle-bug you ever saw. And the initials "T. E." after his named meant "Thoroughly³ Educated"—and so he was, in the Land of Oz. But his education, being applied⁴ to a woggle-bug intellect, was not at all remarkable⁵ in this country, where everything is quite different than Oz. Yet the Woggle-Bug did not suspect this, and being, like so many other thoroughly educated persons, proud of his mental attainments⁶, he marched along the street with an air of importance that made one wonder what great thoughts were occupying his massive brain.

 

Being about as big, in his magnified state, as a man, the Woggle-Bug took care to clothe himself like a man; only, instead of choosing sober colors for his garments, he delighted in the most gorgeous reds and yellows and blues⁷ and greens; so that if you looked at him long the brilliance⁸ of his clothing was liable to dazzle your eyes.

 

I suppose the Waggle-Bug did not realize at all what a queer appearance he made. Being rather nervous, he seldom looked into a mirror; and as the people he met avoided telling him he was unusual, he had fallen into the habit of considering himself merely an ordinary citizen of the big city wherein he resided.

 

So the Woggle-Bug strutted
