Subject: RE: Lyr Req: The Gay Gondolier - Flanders and Swann
I would suggest "Thamesis ",pronounced "TEM-A-SISS"----supposed to be a combination of the Thame ( the Thames as far upstream as Dorchester,the confluence of the Thames & the Thame !!) and,from there to beyond Oxford, the Isis,as that part of the river was classically known.And it ryhmes pretty well with "Premises".QED.
