A Moon leaves across the road in the moist jungle. Ouch! Crouching Akka discovers on top of the mountain! That bright Snake sings! Why?

This grammar appears at Keith Enevoldsen's Think Zone http://thinkzone.wlonk.com/PoemGen/PoemGen.htm It doesn't have recursive rules (where a rule can expand into other rules), only simple sentence patterns and word lists. But the 11 patterns are simple evocative. The rules do have one tiny problem: they include the article "a" but one adjective starts with a vowel. So it can produce "A old sailor"...

A poor though promising example of Elizabethan speech. In particular, endings -est and -eth depend on whether the subject is first or second person, not on whether the verb is transitive or intransitive. But that's more effort. On the other hand, I have appended the popular Shakespeare Insult Kit, and added its nouns and adjectives to the general word list. That spices it up a bit!
