A mighty creature is the germ,
Though smaller than the pachyderm.
His customary dwelling place

By giving people strange diseases.
Do you, my poppet, feel infirm?
You probably contain a germ.
-“The Germ” by Ogden Nash

Who lost his mind in the sun
He ran down the street
No brains lead his feet
And never had so much fun

“There was a Young Lady of Dorking,
Who bought a large bonnet for walking;
But its colour and size,
So bedazzled her eyes,
That she very soon went back to Dorking.”
“Little Miss Muffet
Sat on a tuffet,
Eating her curds and whey;
Along came a spider,
Who sat down beside her
And frightened Miss Muffet away.”
There once was a young lady named bright
Whose speed was much faster than light
She set out one day
In a relative way
And returned on the previous night.
There was a Young Lady whose chin
Resembled the point of a pin:
So she had it made sharp,
And purchased a harp,
And played several tunes with her chin.
A bather whose clothing was strewed
By winds that left her quite nude
Saw a man come along
And unless we are wrong
You expected this line to be lewd.
