Bag om A Book Of Limericks (1888)

A Book of Limericks is a collection of humorous and witty poems written by Edward Lear and published in 1888. The book contains over 100 limericks, which are short, humorous poems with a distinctive rhyming scheme. Each limerick is made up of five lines, with the first, second, and fifth lines rhyming with each other, and the third and fourth lines also rhyming with each other. The limericks in this book cover a wide range of topics, from animals and nature to people and places. They are often playful and absurd, featuring characters like a man from Kent who accidentally sat on a hornet, a lady from Niger who rode on a tiger, and a young lady from Ryde who ate some green apples and died. Edward Lear was a famous English writer and illustrator known for his nonsense poetry and limericks. A Book of Limericks is one of his most popular works and has been enjoyed by generations of readers for its clever wordplay, humorous rhymes, and whimsical illustrations.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
