A handwritten & illustrated poem

by EDWARD LEAR

The Owl and the Pussy-cat went to sea In a beautiful pea-green boat:

They took some honey, and plenty of money Wrapped up in a five-pound note.

The Owl looked up to the stars above, and sang to a small guitar,

'O lovely Pussy, O Pussy, my love, What a beautiful Pussy you are,

You are, You are! What a beautiful Pussy you are!'
