Well, even without considering that the Bard himself spelled his name a number of different ways, making torturous multiple syllable rhymes is part of the point of Limericks... *looks at the mere end rhymes in Shiff's attempts, and then at the scintillating dactylic rhyme of the Haven limerick*

*cough*

Now an orc who had indigestion
Went around to his friends with this question:
Will eating humans or elves,
Gnomes dwarfs, or ourselves
Do the best job my breath (burp) to freshen?
