There was a lovely lass from Vienna
who couldn’t attend balls without a duenna.
Men wooed like gangbusters,
but dad didn’t trust her.
So, her’s was the meanest duenna in Vienna.
Admittedly, I had to look up the meaning of duenna. So thanks for introducing me to the word, and for your fun poem. That duenna surely did a good job of scaring off the woo-ers.

I only knew it from Don Quixote. Sancho Panza hated duennas for some reason.
