More Bab Ballads

By W.S. Gilbert

Book Overview

""More Bab Ballads"" is a collection of humorous poems by W.S. Gilbert, best known as the librettist of the Gilbert and Sullivan operettas. The poems are written in a light-hearted and satirical style, often poking fun at various aspects of Victorian society. The subjects of the poems range from politics to love, and from the absurd to the mundane. Each poem is accompanied by a witty illustration, adding to the overall charm of the book. This collection is a must-read for fans of Gilbert's work and for anyone looking for a good laugh.He saw his ANNIE tremble and he saw his ANNIE start, Her changing colour trumpeted the flutter at her heart; Young GILBERT'S manly bosom rose and sank with jealous fear, And he said, ""O gentle ANNIE, what's the meaning of this here?""This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
