Well, I’m sitting here in Maine expecting the fourth snowstorm in the last few weeks and freezing my butt off. I really can’t go outside because I’m not a snow bunny, so I sit here at the computer trying to decide what to post. Everyone knows that I love limericks, so I thought I’d take it one step further than usual and attempt to locate a few limericks written prior to 1900. I found a few but needless to say the language is a little coarser than usual. I’m posting them as originally written but I recommend you keep them out of the hands of children. These four limericks were written in the 1880’s.

Have you heard about Magna Lupescu,

Who came to Romania’s rescue.

It’s a wonderful thing

To be under a king

Is democracy better, I asked you?

There died an old man of Moldavia,

Well, known for his bawdy behavior.

When the priests thought him shriven,

And fitted for heaven,

He cried, “Go and bugger the Saviour!”

There was a young farmer of Nant

Whose conduct was gay and gallant,

For he fucked all his dozens

Of nieces and cousins,

In addition, of course, to his aunt.

💥💥💥💥

A cheerful old party of Lucknow

Remarked, ” I should just like a fuck now!”

So, he had one and spent

And said,” I’m content,

By no means am I so cunt-struck now.”
