81. There was an Old Man of the East...

Перевод:
Пир устроил старик из Багдада
Всем своим многочисленным чадам;
Но скатившись под лавки, те просили добавки,
Доведя старика до инфаркта.

Edward Lear. A Book of Nonsense

There was an Old Man of the East,
Who gave all his children a feast;
But they all ate so much and their conduct was such
That it killed that Old Man of the East.
