Re:Knightmare Limericks
Those Classicists and their preoccupation with scansion! Ideally, a limerick would have the correct metre all the way through; but as the Moderator says, this is for fun. There is a way to read the current poem aloud and make it scan, by putting emphasis in certain places and pausing in others, so I personally don't perceive a problem with it.
When the team met Lord Fear
Treguard muttered "oh dear"
For they'd come so far
With a fake silver bar
