Hi, just a note about the ‘limerick’ verse form, its association with Limerick has often been disputed. We are in no doubt that the ‘limerick’ does originate from Croom Co. Limerick in Ireland sometime back in the 18th century but the name ‘limerick’ was not applied to it until the late 19th century when Edward Lear was writing his nonsence verse.

Thanks
