English Story

趣味英语顺口溜(4)

  There was a young man from Quebec,
  who wrapped both his legs round his neck,
  But then he forgot
  How to undo the knot,
  And now he is an absolute wreak!

  Peter, peter, pumpkin-eater,
  had a wife and failed to keep her
  put her into a pumpkin shell
  There he kept her very well!

  The fair breeze blew,
  the white foam flew;
  the furrow followed free,
  we were the first to burst—
  into the silent sea.

  She stood at the bridge at the midnight,
  her lips were all aquiver;
  she gave a cough, her leg fell off,
  and floated down the river!
