Some Clerihews by J.B. Pick.
Roman History
Julius Caesar
Was a tempestuous
sneezer;
"That's common," said Brutus
"Among Generals with enormous
hooters."
Greek Philosophers 1.
Everyone agreed, even Plato,
That he strongly
resembled a potato;
But he grew frantic and savage
When they likened
him to a cabbage.
Greek Philosophers 2.
Aristotle
Took to the bottle
When they
described his Nichomachaean Ethic
As simply pathetic.
Mr Apeck's Literary Lecture.
"Look sharp, see deep, and don't relent,
Use
short words, say only what you know,
And when you've said - go."
So Apeck
said - and went.
