Poem by Edward Lear

* * *

There was an Old Person of Tartary,
Who divided his jugular artery;
	But he screeched to his wife,
	And she said, “Oh, my life!
Your death will be felt by all Tartary!”

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
