Edward Lear


from, The Owl and the Pussy-Cat

1.

The Owl and the Pussy-cat went to sea
	In a beautiful pea-green boat,
They took some honey, and plenty of money,
	Wrapped up in a five-pound note.
The Owl looked up to the stars above,
	And sang to a small guitar,
"O lovely Pussy! O Pussy, my love,
	What a beautiful Pussy you are,
		You are,
		You are!
	What a beautiful Pussy you are!"...
