A little garden little Jowett made,
[There is a longer version of this jeu d'esprit:— | A little garden little Jowett made,
And fenced it with a little palisade;
Because this garden made a little talk,
He changed it to a little gravel walk:
And now, if more you 'd know of little Jowett,
A little time, it will a little show it. | See the Life of Richard Porson, by J. Selby Watson (1861)]
