Elise,

OK, got it - just the standard limerick tune.  With my intense brainitude I
didn't notice it was a limerick (even though you'd warned it) because the
3rd-4th lines weren't split.  Ya. That's what I meant.

"Venus" is odd for me.  I've heard of it all my remembered life but to date
haven't heard it sung.  The Hash Hymnal suggests using "North Atlantic
Squadron" but that doesn't seem to work very well.  The Erotic Muse offers
two tunes, one of which is very singable, even if from a book.

So since I had the solemn sacred pages of the Hymnal bared in front of me,
I had a quick flip through for other 'Tart' songs.  Found one that's also in the
Database - "When Lady Jane Became a Tart."  This may elevate the prestige
of Questioner, Patrish, who might use this song to elevate him/herself  to the
peerage at the upcoming singaround.
