Poem by Laura Elizabeth Howe Richards


The Owl, The Eel and The Warming-Pan


The owl and the eel and the warming-pan,
They went to call on the soap-fat man.
The soap-fat man he was not within:
He'd gone for a ride on his rolling-pin.
So they all came back by the way of the town,
And turned the meeting-house upside down.
