Ode to the beautiful fig

     
    "There was an Old Person of Ischia,  
    Whose conduct grew friskier and friskier; 
    He danced hornpipes and jigs, and ate thousands of figs, 
    That lively Old Person of Ischia."  
    Edward Lear, English artist, writer; known for his 'literary nonsense' & limericks  (1812-1888)
