Dearest creature in creation
Studying English pronunciation
I will teach you in my verse
Sounds like corpse, corps, horse and worse
I will keep you, Susy, busy
Make your head with heat grow dizzy
Tear in eye your dress you'll tear
So shall I! Oh, hear my prayer
Pray, console your loving poet
Make my coat look new, dear, sew it
Just compare heart, beard and heard
Dies and diet, lord and word
Sword and sward, retain and Britain
(Mind the latter, how it's written)
Made has not the sound of bade
Say said, pay-paid, laid, but plaid
Now I surely will not plague you
With such words as vague and ague
But be careful how you speak
Say break, steak, but bleak and streak
Previous, precious, fuchsia, via
Pipe, snipe, recipe and choir
Cloven, oven, how and low
Script, receipt, shoe, poem, toe
Hear me say, devoid of trickery
Daughter, laughter and Terpsichore
Typhoid, measles, topsails, aisles
Exiles, similes, reviles
Wholly, holly, signal, signing
Thames, examining, combining
Scholar, vicar, and cigar
Solar, mica, war, and far
From "desire": desirable--admirable from "admire
Lumber, plumber, bier, but brier
Chatham, brougham, renown, but known
Knowledge, done, but gone and tone
One, anemone. Balmoral
Kitchen, lichen, laundry, laurel
Gertrude, German, wind, and mind
Scene, Melpomene, mankind
Tortoise, turquoise, chamois-leather
Reading, reading, heathen, heather
This phonetic labyrinth
Gives moss, gross, brook, brooch, ninth, plinth
Billet does not end like ballet
Bouquet, wallet, mallet, chalet
Blood and flood are not like food
Nor is mould like should and would
Banquet is not nearly parquet
Which is said to rime with "darky
Viscous, Viscount, load, and broad
Toward, to forward, to reward
And your pronunciation's O.K
When you say correctly: croquet
Rounded, wounded, grieve, and sieve
Friend and fiend, alive, and live
Liberty, library, heave, and heaven
Rachel, ache, moustache, eleven
We say hallowed, but allowed
People, leopard, towed, but vowed
Mark the difference, moreover
Between mover, plover, Dover
Leeches, breeches, wise, precise
Chalice, but police, and lice
Camel, constable, unstable
Principle, disciple, label
Petal, penal, and canal
Wait, surmise, plait, promise, pal
Suit, suite, ruin, circuit, conduit
Rime with "shirk it" and "beyond it
But it is not hard to tell
Why it's pall, mall, but Pall Mall
Muscle, muscular, gaol, iron
Timber, climber, bullion, lion
Worm and storm, chaise, chaos, and chair
Senator, spectator, mayor
Ivy, privy, famous, clamour
And enamour rime with hammer
Pussy, hussy, and possess
Desert, but dessert, address
Golf, wolf, countenance, lieutenants
Hoist, in lieu of flags, left pennants
River, rival, tomb, bomb, comb
Doll and roll and some and home
Stranger does not rime with anger
Neither does devour with clangour
Soul, but foul and gaunt but aunt
Font, front, won't, want, grand, and grant
Shoes, goes, does. Now first say: finger
And then: singer, ginger, linger
Real, zeal, mauve, gauze, and gauge
Marriage, foliage, mirage, age
Query does not rime with very
Nor does fury sound like bury
Dost, lost, post; and doth, cloth, loth
Job, Job; blossom, bosom, oath
Though the difference seems little
We say actual, but victual
Seat, sweat; chaste, caste.; Leigh, eight, height
Put, nut; granite, and unite
Reefer does not rime with deafer
Feoffer does, and zephyr, heifer
Dull, bull, Geoffrey, George, ate, late
Hint, pint, Senate, but sedate
Scenic, Arabic, Pacific
Science, conscience, scientific
Tour, but our and succour, four
Gas, alas, and Arkansas
Sea, idea, guinea, area
Psalm, Maria, but malaria
Youth, south, southern, cleanse and clean
Doctrine, turpentine, marine
Compare alien with Italian
Dandelion with battalion
Sally with ally, yea, ye
Eye, I, ay, aye, whey, key, quay
Say aver, but ever, fever
Neither, leisure, skein, receiver
Never guess--it is not safe
We say calves, valves, half, but Ralph
Heron, granary, canary
Crevice and device, and eyrie
Face but preface, but efface
Phlegm, phlegmatic, ass, glass, bass
Large, but target, gin, give, verging
Ought, out, joust, and scour, but scourging
Ear but earn, and wear and bear
Do not rime with here, but ere
Seven is right, but so is even
Hyphen, roughen, nephew, Stephen
Monkey, donkey, clerk, and jerk
Asp, grasp, wasp, and cork and work
Pronunciation--think of psyche
Is a paling, stout and spikey
Won't it make you lose your wits
Writing "groats" and saying "grits
It's a dark abyss or tunnel
Strewn with stones, like rowlock, gunwale
Islington and Isle of Wight
Housewife, verdict, and indict
Don't you think so, reader, rather
Saying lather, bather, father
Finally: which rimes with "enough
Though, through, plough, cough, hough, or tough
Hiccough has the sound of "cup
My advice is--give it up
