BROWN BEAR IN BERN

The Brown Bear of Bern

There was a brown bear in Bern
Who suffered a queasy old turn;
He reeled and he railed,
He whimpered, he wailed:
All cured by a glass of sauterne.

                     ***
A brown bear of Bern named Verne
For beer and sausage did yearn;
But money was scarce,
And fate was adverse,
He busked, in order his feed to earn.

                     ***
The good old brown bear of Bern
Was never upset, nor was stern;
He laughed and he sang,
No sturm and no drang,
And never, oh never taciturn!
