Default The Oldie: Bout-Rimes

The Strad competition was won by Bill Greenwell with a really superb effort. Post it here, Bill, so that we can all gape. You can also tell us, in the fullness of time, all about the Harrogate tea and cake set.

Competition No.121
It's time for the annual bout-rimes. Please write a poem of 14 lines using these rhymes in this order.: undepressed, rain, strain, nest, blest, chain, brain, rest, blast, wilt, day, built, past, lay.

Entries to Competition No 121 by 12th February. email comps@theoldie.co.uk

There was some trouble with this email but it's OK now. Isn't it? Oh, and can anyone identify the sonnet that has this set of rhymes?
