There Was A Young Lady Of Poole,

There Was An Old Man Of Columbia, Who Was Thirsty, And Called Out For Some Beer; But They Brought It Quite Hot, In A Small Copper Pot, Which Disgusted That Man Of Columbia.

There Was An Old Man With A Beard, Who Said: 'it Is Just As I Feared! Two Owls And A Hen, Four Larks And A Wren Have All Built Their Nests In My Beard.

Who, Or Why, Or Which, Or What, Is The Akhond Of Swat?

It's A Fact The Whole World Knows, That Pobbles Are Happier Without Their Toes.

And They Brought An Owl, And A Useful Cart, And A Pound Of Rice, And A Cranberrytart, And A Hive Of Silvery Bees. And They Brought A Pig, And Some Green Jack-daws, And A Lovely Monkey With Lollipop Paws, And Forty Bottles Of Ring-bo-ree, And No End Of Stilton Cheese.
