I present the tale of Edna Waterfall (if anyone understands it, please let me know what it all meanssmiley - doh)

Deliver no evil, avid diva I saw die.
Render an unsung aria for erotogenic id.
O never egg Alec Naig, fairer Edna Waterfall,
A nonassimilative, volatile reef-dweller - apparelless brag!
Natasha I saw die, render an unsung aria.
For Edna Waterfall - a liar - familiar fueds live:
Dastard Ogre and Edna!
Pupils, one tacit song or poem - or didos deft.
Celestial lives (Ida rapt as Naomi)
Laud smegma, alas - keep never a frondlet on.
So did no solo snoop malign
Irised say eyen. Oh dewed yen -
Oh tressed May noon, hello! Tacit songs rev!
Love's barge of assent carts base tarts,
A cerise deb abed, unreined flesh.
Sin - a viand - Edna sees and Edna has,
Or bust fossettes or redder rosettes.
Soft sub-rosa hand Edna sees,
And, Edna, I vanish - self-denier!
Nude babe, desire castrates abstractness.
A foe grabs Evolver's Gnostic Atoll, eh? No!
On, yam (dessert-honeydewed), honeyed as desiring!
I lampoon solos on didos. Not eld nor far
(Even peek! "Salaam, gems dual", I moan)
Sat Paradise Villa, it elect fed.
So did Romeo prognosticate no slip up,
And Edna, ergo, drats a devil's due:
"Frail! I'm a frail all a-fret, a-wander!
O fair Agnus nun, a red Nerrid was I.
Ah Satan, garb's seller,
Apparel (lewd fee) relit a love vital I miss anon.
All a-fret, a wanderer I affiance -
Lagger even odic - in ego 'torero'.
Fair Agnus nun, a red Nerrid was I.
Avid diva, live on reviled."


The whole thing is one palindrome. The word redder is right at the centre. Sometimes I'm scared about the smiley - weird books I own.

Somehow I think you were a red Nereid, which is a sort of water demon, not a Nerrid.

To be, ergo, Greebo T.

That's much better than the Beer Gods.

Yep, Bagpuss, you're right it's a Nereid, not a Nerrid. I just checked.

Obviously these glasses don't work as well as they should.smiley - winkeye

I'm also worried about the line:

"Laud smegma, alas - keep never a frondlet on."smiley - yikes

I haven't a clue what it means, but there's no spelling mistake in that line.

Unless there was one in the original text, of course.

Try looking up some of the words...

I'm sure I've never lauded any smegma. I can only hope a frondlet is a small frond, and nothing to do with A427204
