The Owl and the Pussy-cat 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!"

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.

"Dear Pig, are you willing to sell for one shilling
Your ring?" Said the Piggy, "I will."
So they took it away, and were married next day
By the Turkey who lives on the hill.
They dined on mince, and slices of quince,
Which they ate with a runcible spoon;
And hand in hand, on the edge of the sand,
They danced by the light of the moon,
The moon,
The moon,
They danced by the light of the moon."

The Jumblies by Edward Lear

They went to sea in a Sieve, they did,
  In a Sieve they went to sea:
In spite of all their friends could say,
On a winter's morn, on a stormy day,
  In a Sieve they went to sea!
And when the Sieve turned round and round,
And every one cried, "You'll all be drowned!"
They called aloud, "Our Sieve ain't big,
But we don't care a button! we don't care a fig!
  In a Sieve we'll go to sea!"
    Far and few, far and few,
      Are the lands where the Jumblies live;
    Their heads are green, and their hands are blue,
      And they went to sea in a Sieve.

This is a reproduction of Illustrations of Miss Maniac.

Around my brain there is a chain, and o'er my fevered soul
A darkness like that solemn gloom which once through Egypt stole;
Sometimes I feel, but know not why, a fire within me burn,
And visions fierce and terrible, pursue where'er I turn;
Then I forget that earth is earth, and that myself am life,
And nature seems to die away in darkness, hell and strife.
But when my phrenzied fit is o'er, a dreary hour comes on, — 
A consciousness of unknown things, — of reason overthrown.
Cold runs my blood from vein to vein — all vacant is mine eye,
And in my ears a sound of death, and dread eternity!
Then one by one my thoughts return, and from my grated cell
I gaze upon the mountain fir, the steep and woody dell;
And as I listen to the stream that dashes far below,
I pine for freedom as a joy I never more can know.
Beyond those far blue hills, I feel, was once my home of bliss,
And there my father's cottage stood, — a roof more blest than this.
...
