There was an Old Lady of Prague,
Whose language was horribly vague;
When they said, "Are these caps?"
She answered, "Perhaps!"
That oracular Lady of Prague.
E.Lear, 1846
Ruined by a bush
There was an Old Lady whose folly,
Induced her to sit in a holly;
Whereon by a thorn,
Her dress being torn,
She quickly became melancholy.
E.Lear, 1846
Lost Queen
- Excuse me. Could you tell us how to get to Buckingham Palace?
- I'm searching for half-hour myself already...
A nose to be proud of
There was a Young Lady whose nose,
Was so long that it reached to her toes;
So she hired an Old Lady,
Whose conduct was steady,
To carry that wonderful nose.
E.Lear, 1846
