More Nonsense LIMERICKS by Edward Lear (1 to 10)
More Nonsense Limericks will give you a chuckle. These short rhymes are silly and funny, and not meant for serious consumption. Edward Lear included these ten limericks in his book entitled: "More Nonsense
Pictures, Rhymes, Botany, etc." This book was published in Boston by the Roberts Brothers in 1894.
The reading of ten of the limericks found in Edward Lear's book is accompanied by Edward Lear's delightful doodles. His loose and fast imaginative sketches support the silly theme of the nonsense book.
The video provides stories from TEN places, all presented in Limerick form:
Bantry, Wilts, Grange, Newry, Deal, Dumblane, Port Grigor, El Hums, West Dumpet, and on some random barge at night. Follow the silly antics of people from those places as Edward Lear weaves their fantasical and somewhat whimsical experiences into his nonsense LIMERICKS.
