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 Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com 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!
