Джону уши (вариант:яйца) достались с сюрпризом:
Как две кружки от разных сервизов.
То, что выросло малым -
Бесполезно торчало.
А с большущим - Джон приз брал за призом!
Оригинал:
There was a young man of Devizes
Whose ears were of different sizes.
The one was so small,
It was no use at all,
But the other won several prizes.
(Другая версия: There once was a man from Devizes,
Who's Balls were of different Sizes,
One ball was so small,
T'was no ball at all,
But the other One Won several Prizes!)
