Edward Lear (Эдвард Лир)

* * *

There was an Old Man with a flute,
A serpent ran into his boot;
	But he played day and night,
	Till the serpent took flight,
And avoided that man with a flute.

* * *

Жил-был Старец, владелец волынок.
Заползла ему кобра в ботинок.
	Он волынкою доброй
	Прогнусавил над коброй
И змея уступила ботинок.
