Tongue-Twisters
One old ox opening oysters. Two tired toads trying to trot to Tedbury. Three tall tigers taking tea. Four funny foxes frolicking freely. Five frivolous Frenchmen fishing for flies. Six solemn storks seriously sipping soup. Seven Severn salmon severally swallowing shrimps. Eight eastern elephants elegantly equipped. Nine nimble niggers nibbling nuts. Ten tame tortoises tootling tin trumpets. Eleven elderly Englishmen eagerly eating eels. Twelve tom tits trying to twitter tunes.
