You may not have known it, but there is already a legal limerick on Absolvitor: Scots Law Online – which was quite a hit on Wikipedia for a while.

So, when I came across a dedicated “absolvitor” limerick, I knew I just had to share:

The absolvitor limerick, by Chris Young

The defender now seeks a decree
Of absolvitor, granting “that he
Be absolved”. I ask, coyly,
The court to assoilzie
My client and let him go free.

This limerick was found on the Omnificent English Dictionary In Limerick Form (OEDILF) website.
