Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHHIF DJKCFF| The sun rises in south east corner of things | A |
| To look on the tall house of the Shin | B |
| For they have a daughter named Rafu | C |
| pretty girl | D |
| She made the name for herself 'Gauze Veil ' | E |

| They set down their burdens | F |
| They stand and twirl their moustaches | F |
