The Lyrics of Alan Jay Lerner

A Hymn to Him

Derek Strange

Eliza Doolittle is a poor flower-seller in Victorian London who has a very strong London accent. Professor Higgins chooses her for an experiment. He decides to teach her to speak like an upper class lady but things don't happen exactly as he plans ... This wonderful story was first a play called Pygmalion by the famous writer George Bernard Shaw. It was made into a musical, perhaps the best-known of all, and then a film starring Audrey Hepburn.
