LIMERICK by EDWARD LEAR

Poet Analysis

First Line: THERE WAS A YOUNG LADY OF WELLING
Last Line: THAT ACCOMPLISHED YOUNG LADY OF WELLING.

There was a Young Lady of Welling,
Whose praise all the world was a-telling;
She played on a harp, and caught several carp,
That accomplished Young Lady of Welling.
