Mrs Jaypher found a wafer | B |
Which she stuck upon a note | C |
This she took and gave the cook | D |

Which she paddled down the stream | E |
Shouting 'Ice produces cream | E |
Beer when churned produces butter | B |
Henceforth all the words I utter | B |

Mrs Jaypher said 'It's safer | B |
If you've lemons in your head | F |
First to eat a pound of meat | G |
And then to go at once to bed | F |
Eating meat is half the battle | H |
Till you hear the Lemons rattle | H |
If you don't you'll always moan | I |
In a Lemoncolly tone | I |
For there's nothing half so dreadful | H |
as Lemons in your head | F |
Edward Lear
