This book is poetry. The Songs in this book are taken from THE FLYING INN, with the exception of The Good Rich Man and The Song of the Strange Ascetic, which are here included by kind permission of the editor of =The New Witness=, where they originally appeared. Old Noah he had an ostrich farm and fowls on the largest scale, He ate his egg with a ladle in an egg-cup big as a pail, And the soup he took was Elephant Soup and the fish he took was Whale, But they all were small to the cellar he took when he set out to sail, And Noah he often said to his wife when he sat down to dine, I don't care where the water goes if it doesn't get into the wine.
