He asked the clerk for a bit of cheese,
a bottle of wine and tin of nuts.
"Perchance some meat. Oh pretty please?"
"Make it of your finest Cuts."
"I'll need a cloth, so here's my pick,"
"and this exquisite tray of choicest fruit."
The register tabulated click, click, click,
then greedily accepted all his loot.
