I SAW A FISHPOND ALL ON FIRE by ANONYMOUS

Last Line: AND SAID THOUGH STRANGE THEY ALL WERE TRUE

I saw a fishpond all on fire
I saw a house bow to a squire
I saw a parson twelve feet high
I saw a cottage near the sky
I saw a balloon made of lead
I saw a coffin drop down dead
I saw two sparrows run a race
I saw two horses making lace
I saw a girl just like a cat
I saw a kitten wear a hat
I saw a man who saw these too
And said though strange they all were true.
