Edward Lear - Mrs JaypherEdward Lear - Mrs Jaypher
Work rating: Low


Mrs Jaypher found a wafer Which she stuck upon a note; This she took and gave the cook. Then she went and bought a boat, Which she paddled down the stream, Shouting, `Ice produces cream, Beer when churned produces butter! Henceforth all the words I utter Distant ages thus shall note - "From the Jaypher Wisdom-Boat."` Mrs Jaypher said, `It`s safer If you`ve lemons in your head; First to eat, a pound of meat, And then to go at once to bed. Eating meat is half the battle, Till you hear the Lemons rattle! If you don`t, you`ll always moan, In a Lemoncolly tone; For there`s nothing half so dreadful,       as Lemons in your head.
