Jeanne Villepreux
born in a French village in 1794
she took a walk to Paris and was employed making dresses
Jeanne Villepreux made a wedding gown so renowned
for a Bourbon Princess
Jeanne Villepreux used her newfound fame to get hitched
to an English merchant
he took her to his home in sicily by the sea
she soon became well known as the mother of aquariophily
Jeanne Villepreux brought aquatic life onto land
and she made some drawings
Jeanne Villepreux saw the nautilus grow a shell
starting as a larva
the edge of the ocean the side of the sea
the Mediterranean's old mysteries
that Pliny the Elder had failed to perceive before her
the young argonauta are born without shells
they live with their mothers and cover themselves

a crater on Venus was recently named for Villepreux
after 25 years explorin' what lay beneath the waves
the couple said goodbye to Sicily by the sea
Jeanne Villepreux packed her records up and her notes
and exquisite drawings
Jeanne Villepreux lost her life's research to the sea
in a goddamn shipwreck
the edge of the ocean the side of the sea
the Mediterranean's old mysteries
that Pliny the Elder had failed to perceive before her
the young argonauta are born without shells
they live with their mothers and cover themselves
a crater on Venus was recently named for Villepreux
Jeanne Villepreux's work was not done
but she proved that Pliny the Elder was in error 'bout the domiciles of argonauta!
