(Sung to the tune of “The Twelve Days of Christmas”)

On the eighth day of Christmas, Jane Austen gave to me,
Eight Minor Pieces
Seven Austen Siblings
Six Classic Novels
F-i-v-e Bennet Singers
Four Abbey Tilneys
Three Sailing Captains
Two Dashing Colonels
And a love of Mr. Dar…cy.

Love and Freindship [satiric-humorous]
The Three Sisters [more serious]
Frederic and Elfrida [satiric-humorous}
Jack and Alice [unrestrained Juvenilia]
Henry and Eliza [early humorous]
Lesley Castle (excerpts) [satiric-humorous]
Lady Susan [Jane Austen’s wickedest tale]
The Watsons [uncompleted novel]
