Poem A Day

Classic poem

Epigram on an Old Lady Who Had Some Curious Notions Respecting the Soul

by George Gordon, Lord Byron

IN Nottingham county there lives at Swan Green,

As curst an old Lady as ever was seen;

And when she does die, which I hope will be soon,

She firmly believes she will go to the Moon!
