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.

There was an old person of Leeds,
whose head was infested with beads;
she sat on a stool,
and ate gooseberry fool,
which agreed with that person of Leeds
