You probably don’t remember, I admit, I scarcely do
That “folly” came into the public after a certain view.
It was an invention, odd looking as it was
A steamboat with two sets of sails, gave onlookers pause
It was successful as Fulton hoped it would be
First one propelled by steam along rivers with ease.
