Those two particularly caught my fancy.

And though they never appeared on the original radio screen,
we might add...

The first world spenders;
the second choice losers;
the third eye gougers;
the form ruffians;
the fifth columnists;
the sixth sick sheik's sick parade;
the seventh heavenly creatures,
aaaaaaaand...
the eighth-fold wayfarers.

One hen

Two ducks

Three squawking geese

Four limerick oysters

Five corpulent porpoises

Six pair of Don Alverzo's tweezers

Seven thousand Macedonians in full battle array

Eight brass monkeys from the ancient sacred crypts of Egypt

Nine apathetic, sympathetic, diabetic, old men on roller skates
with a marked propensity towards procrastination and sloth

Ten lyrical, spherical diabolical denizens of the deep who hall
stall around the corner of the quo of the quay of the quivery, all at
the same time.

Didn't I find this here long ago?
It's in with me under the bench, quietly lurking, as usual

I think you forgot the pictures of the fascinating witches who put
the scintillating stitches in the britches of the boys who put the powder
on the noses on the faces of the ladies of the harem of the court of King
Catactacus.

I think there should be some Lords a-Leaping. Oi loiikes them, it's not the
same without.

And some beans; the only question is, how many ?

You'd have needed a crowbar to get half-a-crown from Bud, let alone a
tenner!

I might be just one of them, so already the prize is reduced by half.
