Re:Knightmare Limericks

One forum member should begin a limerick by suppling a furtive first line and four other different forum members should supply the the remaining four lines.
In case anyone doesn't know, a limerick takes the form of a five line poem where lines 1 and 2 are a rhyming couplet, lines 3 and 4 are another rhyming couplet and the final line rhymes with lines 1 and 2.
Oh, and you may be mischevious but not downright rude; but I don't have to tell any of you that!
So, without further ado...

Here's another first line (but anyone can start these off by the way) And remember, it's one line at a time...

Those Classicists and their preoccupation with scansion! Ideally, a limerick would have the correct metre all the way through; but as the Moderator says, this is for fun. There is a way to read the current poem aloud and make it scan, by putting emphasis in certain places and pausing in others, so I personally don't perceive a problem with it.
