LIMERICK by OLIVER BROOK HERFORD

First Line: THERE WAS A YOUNG LADY OF TWICKENHAM
Last Line: AND TOOK 'EM BOTH OFF AND WAS SICK IN 'EM.
Subject(s): SHOES; BOOTS; SNEAKERS; SHOEMAKERS;
There was a young lady of Twickenham,
Whose shoes were too tight to walk quick in 'em;
She came back from her walk,
Looking white as a chalk,
And took 'em both off and was sick in 'em.
