A Pickle Limerick


There was a young man named Perkins

Who was specially fond of small gherkins

One fine day at tea he ate forty-three

Which pickled his internal workin's.

whose head was infested with beads;

she sat on a stool,

and ate gooseberry fool,

which agreed with that person of Leeds
