I think he did appreciate that Hatty was a good, beautiful and noble woman - but, yes, he was mainly just after her father's cash ^^"

Thank you for this delightful poem. The second line alone..! And the fourth is even better.

Thank you - I was pleased with this one ^_^

It is a very handy name for rhyming! :) Wonderful play with words, and I love how you picked up on Holmes' assertion that Lady Hatty St. Simon did not actually exist.

Thanks so much ^^ And it was a neat and intriguing little clue from ACD - the fact that Hatty could never have actually become Lady St. Simon.
