Эдвард Лир (Edward Lear)

* * *

Есть странная дама из Кракова:
орет от пожатия всякого,
орет наперед
и все время орет —
но орет не всегда одинаково.

                   Перевод Владимира Набокова

Оригинал или первоисточник на английском языке

* * *

There was a Young Lady of Russia,
Who screamed so that no one could hush her;
Her screams were extreme,
No one heard such a scream,
As was screamed by that lady of Russia.
