In the first third of the nineteenth century, in Scotland, Ireland and England, those in the medical profession in need of "subjects" for anatomical study and demonstration were forced to turn to the resurrectionists, or"sack 'em up" men. Bodies were stolen for profit, and sometimes bodies were "manufactured" by the sack 'em up men to sell. What better way to celebrate this bizarre history than in the form of limericks? Darken the room, light the candles and read these rhymes aloud to those you love.
