Старикан с выдающимся носом
Разрешал сесть на нос альбатросам;
На постой брал пичуг,
Что летели на юг...
Оставляя к зиме его с носом.
111. Edward Lear
There was an Old Man, on whose nose,
Most birds of the air could repose;
But they all flew away
At the closing of day,
Which relieved that Old Man and his nose.
1846
