"WHENCE" VERSE: More limericks about ETYMOLOGY

WORDPLAY post #119
SATIRE COMPOSED: Giorgio Coniglio,  2018. Many of today's verses have also been published (or remain under review) at OEDILF.com, an online humour dictionary that has accumulated over 100,000 carefully edited limericks. 
See previous verses about the derivation of words in Giorgio's blog-collection at post #112.

SONGLINK: For those readers who like poetry set to music: You can find lots of singable limerick medleys on our sister blog "SILLY SONGS and SATIRE". 

By the way, to find more limericks, or any other search target on either of these 2 blogs, use the SEARCH-FUNCTION found at the top of the righthand margin.
