Poem by Edward Lear

* * *

There was a Young Lady of Portugal,
Whose ideas were excessively nautical:
	She climbed up a tree,
	To examine the sea,
But declared she would never leave Portugal. 

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