A Slew of Clerihews Blaise Cronin

A clerihew is a whimsical four-line verse of the form AABB, the first line of which is the name of a well-known person. The genre was invented by Edmund Clerihew Bentley. A Slew of Clerihews continues the tradition with a century of clerihews-some lewd, some silly-relating to notable figures from literature, music, art and philosophy, this being one such: Samuel Beckett
cried, 'Feck it!
We can't finish the show
without bloody Godot.'
