    There was a Young Lady whose bonnet,

    Came untied when the birds sate upon it;

            But she said: 'I don't care!

            All the birds in the air

    Are welcome to sit on my bonnet!'


     <Publ. 1846>

    There was a Young Lady whose chin,
    Resembled the point of a pin;

    There was a Young Lady whose eyes,

    Were unique as to colour and size;

           When she opened them wide,

           People all turned aside,

    And started away in surprise.

    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.
