Knightmare Limericks

One forum member should begin a limerick by suppling a furtive first line and four other different forum members should supply the the remaining four lines.

In case anyone doesn't know, a limerick takes the form of a five line poem where lines 1 and 2 are a rhyming couplet, lines 3 and 4 are another rhyming couplet and the final line rhymes with lines 1 and 2.

Oh, and you may be mischevious but not downright rude; but I don't have to tell any of you that!

So, without further ado...

They came in for a lot of danger

They needed a beer
They avoided Lord Fear

Here's another first line (but anyone can start these off by the way) And remember, it's one line at a time...

These don't all scan as limerick lines; more effort as regards metre, please. And more effort from me as regards rhyme, because I can't think of anything appropriate that also scans. ::)

It's only a bit of fun. They don't have to be perfect, so long as people are prepared to have a go. Which is more important? Ensuring perfect rhyme and metre or having as many people take part as possible? This being a forum, I would imagine the latter.
