Three maidens once lived by the river,
Whose knowledge would set you aquiver,
All gained in the schools
Run by Perrysburg rules,
They still live to honor the giver.
A lawyer one day in the spring
Married one of these maids with the ring,
A Troup bore her away
To Bowling Green gay,
Where the praises of Home Town she'll sing.

In loneliness ever doth shiver.
