Poem by Edward Lear

* * *

There was an Old Person of Basing,
Whose presence of mind was amazing;
He purchased a steed,
Which he rode at full speed,
And escaped from the people of Basing. 

1. There Was An Old Man Of Jamaica
2. Cold Are The Crabs
3. Imitation of The Olden Poets
4. There Was An Old Man Of Vienna
5. He Lived at Dingle Bank
