He viewed the pyramids ana SPHINX,
And when at last he had come nome
He only talked about the drinks
They served III Cairo and in Rome.
She found her way TO Ispahan,
She spent a week in far Bombay,
And hurried onward through Japan
And paused at Melbourne for day,
And having reached her native shore,
Her only subject first and last,
Concerned the clothes the women wore
Within the realms through which she passed.
