The man very tall
had a great fall
he broke his bones
he being alone
could not manage
so had to arrange
a helper to look after
being one who liked laughter
found a maid who was quiet
she did her job quite right
the tall man got short
his tempers rose in a shot
started to torment her on and off
the woman turned to him with a scoff
not able to co-exist with her
he drove her off in the spur
Lo! the tall man lay alone
as he had broken his bone
