Lear, Edward, 1812-1888

"Nonsense Song"


v!
Pretty green veil!

W
[Illustration]
W was a watch,
Where, in letters of gold,
The hour of the day
You might always behold.
w!
Beautiful watch!

X
[Illustration]
X was King Xerxes,
Who wore on his head
A mighty large turban,
Green, yellow, and red.
x!
Look at King Xerxes!

Y
[Illustration]
Y was a yak,
From the land of Thibet:
Except his white tail,
He was all black as jet.
y!
Look at the yak!

Z
[Illustration]
Z was a zebra,
All striped white and black;
And if he were tame,
You might ride on his back.
z!
Pretty striped zebra!
