THE CANAL BANK, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: I know a girl
Last Line: To-what! To-wit! To-woo!
Subject(s): Love


I know a girl,
And a girl knows me,
And the owl says, what!
And the owl says, who?

But what we know
We both agree
That nobody else
Shall hear or see;

It's all between herself and me:
To wit? said the owl,
To woo! said I,
To-what! To-wit! To-woo!
