Who Had Time Traveled
in 1901 two female professors travelled to France
While they visited Palace of Versailles an amazing vision appeared
it was Marie Antoinette, in the garden, patiently sketching
She was wearing her 1780 attire, did not notice them at all
She disappeared when their tour guide approached
Both women were well-respected, not the kind to hallucinate
Their names were Anne Moberly and Eleanor Jourdain
They both wrote a book about the experience
Had they time-travelled or had Marie time-traveled
or had they all three time-traveled? A mystery indeed.
