Song

A Woman Whose Name is Rupetta sung to the tune of “My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean”

A woman whose name is Rupetta
is built out of linen and gears
Her heart has been fashioned from clockwork
She’s lasted for four hundred years.

Go read
Go read
Go read Rupetta today ... today.
Go read
Go read
Go read Rupetta today!

Nike Sulway’s the author we’ve honored.
We thought her book clever and wise.
She came all the way from Australia
to claim her tiara and prize.

It won
It won
It won the Tiptre — hooray (hooray)
It won
It won
It won the Tiptree today!
