There was a Young Lady of Hull,
Who was chased by a virulent Bull;
But she seized on a spade,
And called out--"Who's afraid!"
Which distracted that virulent Bull.

There was an Old Man of Whitehaven,
Who danced a quadrille with a Raven;
But they said--"It's absurd,
To encourage this bird!"
So they smashed that Old Man of Whitehaven.

There was an Old Man of Leghorn,
The smallest as ever was born;
But quickly snapt up he,
Was once by a puppy,
Who devoured that Old Man of Leghorn.
