There was an Old Person of Grange*,
Whose manners were scroobious and strange;
He sailed to St. Blubb
In a waterproof tub,
That aquatic Old Person of Grange.

*Grange: Several communities in Ireland, Scotland, England, Australia, and other countries are named Grange or have Grange as part of their names.
