Poem by Edward Lear

* * *

There was an Old Man of Tobago,
Who lived on rice, gruel and sago;
	Till, much to his bliss,
	His physician said this
To a leg, sir, of mutton you may go.

1. There was an Old Person of Leeds
2. There was an Old Person of Ischia
3. There was an Old Man with a gong
4. There was an Old Man of the West
5. There was an Old Man of the Isles
