Poem by Edward Lear

* * *

There was an Old Person of Bromley,
Whose ways were not cheerful or comely;
     He sate in the dust, 
     Eating spiders and crust,
That unpleasing old person of Bromley.

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
