The Trystyng by Lewis Carroll
One Winter night, at half-past nine,
Cold, tired, and cross, and muddy,
I had come home, too late to dine,
And supper, with cigars and wine,
Was waiting in the study.
There was a strangeness in the room,
And something white and wavy
Was standing near me in the gloom -
I took it for the carpet - broom
Left by that careless slavey.
But presently the thing began
To shiver and to sneeze:
On which I said Come, come, my man!
That's a most inconsiderate plan,
Less noise there if you please!
I ve caught a cold , the Thing replies,
Out there upon the landing.
I turned to look in some surprise,
And there, before my very eyes,
A Little Ghost was standing!
