LIMERICKS 22, 23 & 24.

 

There was a young man well renowned,

whose eyebrows swept down to the ground.

You could tell where he’d been

for they swept the floor clean

but they tripped him up each time he frowned.

  

 

The wife of a husband called Ned,

said ‘Ned, since the day that we wed,

I disdainfully view

the biscuits you chew

and the crumbs that you leave in the bed’.

  

 

There was a strange man from Redditch

who had a peculiar fetish.

He’d roam the estate,

then lie down prostrate

and pretend to be kind of deadish!
