Where the early pumpkins blow,
In the middle of the woods
Lived the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo.
Two old chairs, and half a candle,—
One old jug without a handle,—
These were all his worldly goods:
In the middle of the woods,”
—Edward Lear (1812–1888)

That guard our native seas!
Whose flag has braved a thousand years
The battle and the breeze!”

To their right praise and true perfection!”
