Poem by Edward Lear

* * *

There was an old man of Peru,
Who dreamt he was eating his shoe.
	He awoke in the night
	In a terrible fright,
And found it was perfectly true.

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 Isles
5. There was an Old Man of the West
