There was an Old Person of Philae
Whose conduct was scroobius and wily;
Folks asked, “What is ‘scroobius’?
Its meaning is dubious.”
“Why ask if you know?” he said drily.

There was an Old Man with a nose
Who said, 'If you choose to suppose
I pilfered this snoot off
A reindeer named Rudolph,
You won’t be surprised that it glows.”

There was a Young Lady of Troy
Whom several large flies did annoy;
"They're coming, of course,
From that filthy old horse,
A gift from that jilted Greek boy."

There was an Old Person of Ems
Who casually fell in the Thames,
Which is fitting and normal.
One must, though, go formal
When dropping in at the PM's.
