There was an old man from Kent
A rather mysterious gent
The legend was told
He turned lead into gold
And gave alms wherever he went.
Merlin wasn’t from Kent but I thought this illustration went well with the limerick 🙂

Lovely. If there’s any spare gold that you need to get rid of I will dispose of it safely for you!
