The Ongoing Count

This is a tale of a Count and his ...ess. His demeanor was pompous as was his dress. Not really a dress but striped pantaloons. His ...ess wore the dress. Now the story resumes. The Count never stayed in one place very long. He quickly would leave when his ...ess offered song. As the song would begin, his regrets he would send and be out on the road before the song's end. His ...ess then would follow, just one step behind. All gazed in amaze at how they were aligned. One followed the other on singular mount. The ...ess in a dress and the ongoing Count. Their closeness caused many to stare in confusion. Together they offered a startling illusion. In striped pantaloons, the Count would impress. Then followed his ...ess, still at song, in a dress. This tale never ends though the end is in sight (as it usually followed the Count in his flight). His ...ess, in that dress, singingly flowing. The Count, on his mount, forever ongoing.
