   This is amusing but it is not a limerick per se. It doesn’t scan to the limerick rhythm. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limerick_(poetry)

   From prison Manette headed west
   For fear of the Bastille’s unrest,
   While Paris was tumbling
   and London was grumbling
   that the times were the worst and the best.

   I think that tidies it up a trifle! Enjoyed that, thanks.

   Literary gems get such kickings,
   Reduced to such very slim pickings:
   When TV and movies
   Gut what’s true, jeez,
   Who’d wish to be Austen or Dickens?
