Then the spooks, on Hallowe'en night
Should they happen to call
Will not harm you at all
And the witches will quickly take flight

The Schoolma'am - Vintage Limerick Postcard

She is the one of whom all are afraid
And her speech is "I must be obeyed!"
She keeps down the lid
On the poor little kid
And she lives and will die an old maid.

If the Witches you see on paraid

But delight in a jolk
For that's just the way they are maid

Who roamed the green fields for a while
Till he met pumpkin Kate
Standing next to the gate
And turned her sad frown to a smile.

Who was sadly annoyed by a Flea;
When he said, "I will scratch it!"
They gave him a hatchet,
Which grieved that Old Man of the Dee.

A Jock from the Town of Dundee - A Sarony Cigarettes Limerick

A "Jock" from the town of Dundee
Wore his kilts rather high from the knee
Of course you conclude
It was frightfully rude
But his mother still dresses him - see?
