  • The order of the zodiac signs:
The Ram, the Bull, the Heavenly Twins,
And next' the Crab, the Lion shines,
The Virgin and the Scales.
The Scorpion, Archer, and the Goat,
The Man who holds the Watering Pot,
And Fish with glittering scales.
  • Thirty days hath September, a mnemonic for the lengths of the months.
  • King Henry Doesn't March Down Chocolate Mountains, order of metric system prefixes.
  • The difference between prone (face-down) and supine (face-up):
In muggings, muggers must attack
The victim's proper zone:
The belly if he's supine,
And the spine if he is prone.
  • The order of British monarchs:
Willie, Willie, Harry, Steve,
Harry, Dick, John, Harry three;
One, two, three Neds, Richard two
Harrys four, five, six... then who?
Edwards four, five, Dick the bad,
Harrys (twain), Ned six (the lad);
Mary, Bessie, James you ken,
Then Charlie, Charlie, James again...
Will and Mary, Anna Gloria,
Georges four, Will four, Victoria;
Edward seven next, and then
Came George the fifth in nineteen ten;
Ned the eighth soon abdicated
Then George six was coronated;
After which Elizabeth
And that's all folks until her death.
