DOL 21
William Waggish, always playfully humorous, chose that moment to subvocalize a limerick under his breath, his favorite way to deal with tension.  He entitled it “The Mean Dean.”  Several people heard its utterance, and Jesse Jocose, who sat nearby, snorted in laughter.

DOL 22
As William Waggish uttered the last word of his limerick, the teacher nearest him twitched and nodded his head.  His eyelids fluttered; his tongue protruded between his closed lips; and wisps of smoke curled from his ears.

DOL 20
“Children, I am the school’s principal, the captain of your ship,” said the principal.  “My name is Mr. Punctilious Principal, and this is Dean Dread who will mete out any discipline for misbehaving students,” he continued as he put a hand on the Dean’s broad, right shoulder.

There was an old dean from Salt Lick (Kentucky)
Who made all the kids very sick.
One look at his face
And students would race,
Well-aided by steps that were quick.

All the teachers still stood in the aisles like sentries, most of them glowering at the kids as if daring them to speak. The principal stood up on the stage and Dean Dread joined him there.
