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 Basing
2. There Was An Old Man Of Jamaica
3. Cold Are The Crabs
4. Imitation of The Olden Poets
5. There Was An Old Man Of Vienna
