<h2>Limerick.</h2>

Limerick are short and humurous poems consisting of only five lines, they were popularized by an english poet named Edward Lear. Edward wrote an entire book full of limericks, it was called "The book of nonsense".

A very popular Limerick is:

<em>“Hickory dickory dock. </em>

<em> The mouse ran up the clock. </em>

<em> The clock struck one, </em>

<em> And down he run. </em>

<em> Hickory dickory dock.”</em>

Limericks are supposed to be nonsensical and they have an  a-a-b-b-a rhyming pattern.

I think it could happen because the girl (don't remember their names sorry) snuck onto the ship where she wasn't supposed to go. Obviously if you do something wrong, no necessarily sneaking onto a spaceship, there are always consequences. The man did try to save her life, but there wasn't much he could do because it was too late for both of them to survive.

Answer and Explanation:

"A Modest Proposal" was written anonymously by author Jonathan Swift in 1729. His not-at-all modest proposal for the poor people of Ireland to stop being a burden is that they should start selling their children as food for the rich. Of course, that proposal is outrageous, and for that very reason it has become a famous example of satire. Swift used an alarming seriousness when writing it, certainly with the intention of making it more absurd by making it sound plausible and feasible. His intention is, in fact, to criticize the economic sate of Ireland - a state in which the rich get richer by shamelessly exploring the poorer classes.
