Poem by Edward Lear

* * *

There was an old person of Dean
Who dined on one pea, and one bean;
	For he said, “More than that,
	Would make me too fat,”
That cautious old person of Dean.

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
