The Owl and the Pussy-Cat
- Edward Lear

II

Pussy said to the Owl, "You elegant fowl!
  How charmingly sweet you sing!
O let us be married! too long we have tarried:
  But what shall we do for a ring?"
They sailed away, for a year and a day,
  To the land where the Bong-Tree grows
And there in a wood a Piggy-wig stood
  With a ring at the end of his nose,
         His nose,
         His nose,
  With a ring at the end of his nose.The Owl and the Pussy-Cat
