'Nonsense Verse'
Nonsense Verse is a form of writing that is very highly esteemed nowadays, when it has such distinguished exponents as Hilaire Belloc, G.K. Chesterton, Lord Alfred Douglas, E.C. Bentley, and A.P. Herbert - to name only a few. Mr. Langford Reed has done a good service to the cause by editing an anthology of nonsense verse (as well as one of Limericks, which can be a very similar form of verse) in which his own creations were in no way the least amusing.
