There was one incredibly curious thing
You`d notice if you met Sir Trevor of Tring
His chain mail vest , was actually string
And did not fit
Minstrels composed songs to sing
Because of it
Tis said, he owned a solitary coat
Made from rabbit , weasel and stoat
His tumbledown castle boasted a moat
Just one foot deep
Apparently, the builder`s quote
Was suitably cheap
His sword and shield were made of wood
And subsequently, not much good
Atop the mantlepiece they stood
On proud display
Well, Trevor hated the sight of blood
Anyway
Should a Damsell cry out in distress
Embroiled in some domestic mess
Trevor set out to impress her with his skill
Then made a note of the address
And sent a bill!
