The New Vestments

by Edward Lear · 1872 · Humor & Wit
A gentleman who had a New Vestment,
Went out for a walk,
And he met with a man,
And he said to the man,
"I have a New Vestment."
And the man said, "I have a New Vestment too, I have a New Vestment too, I have a New Vestment too, I have a New Vestment too."
And the gentleman said, "I have a New Vestment, And I have a New Vestment too, And I have a New Vestment, And I have a New Vestment too."
And the man said, "I have a New Vestment, I have a New Vestment too, I have a New Vestment, I have a New Vestment too."
And the gentleman said, "I have a New Vestment, And I have a New Vestment too, And I have a New Vestment, And I have a New Vestment too."
And the man said, "I have a New Vestment, I have a New Vestment too, I have a New Vestment, I have a New Vestment too."
And the gentleman said, "I have a New Vestment, And I have a New Vestment too, And I have a New Vestment, And I have a New Vestment too."
And the man said, "I have a New Vestment, I have a New Vestment too, I have a New Vestment, I have a New Vestment too."
And the gentleman said, "I have a New Vestment, And I have a New Vestment too, And I have a New Vestment, And I have a New Vestment too."
And the man said, "I have a New Vestment, I have a New Vestment too, I have a New Vestment, I have a New Vestment too."
