LIMERICK by ANONYMOUS

First Line: THERE WAS A YOUNG MAN OF FORT BLAINEY
Last Line: "HE REPLIED, BUT THE DAY WAS SO RAINY"

There was a young man of Fort Blainey,
Who proposed to his typist named Janey;
When his friends said, "Oh, dear!
She's so old and so queer!"
He replied, "But the day was so rainy!"
