The Owl and the Pussy-Cat

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... Edward was an English author and poet known for his literary nonsense in poetry and prose and especially his limericks, a form he popularised.
