Leaving no crumbs
It was at Christmas time of 1517
That the Bishop erred
And dared serve a copious table
Consisting of nine dishes
Which was way above his rank
As per the Sumptuary Law
Which allowed him to serve only seven
The word quickly got around
And he was served the appropriate fine.

Appreciated. These members of the high clergy don't change much: pretty much all quite fat. Regards, Robert.
