Poem by Edward Lear

* * *

There was an Old Person of Cadiz,
Who was always polite to all ladies;
      But in handing his daughter,
      He fell into the water,
Which drowned that Old Person of Cadiz.

1. There Was An Old Person Of Basing
2. He Lived at Dingle Bank
3. There Was An Old Man Of Jamaica
4. Cold Are The Crabs
5. There Was An Old Man Of Vienna
