No thooner published than wryly catched

Holden Caulhead was a lord of the Edmont but not well-beloved by the Jane Gallaghar. He dwelt while his days lasted under the clavichord of Fâith Cavëndïsh, who gave to him wide lands in that region of Newth Yum which was called Bar-Róaming. His sister Phöebedhel never wedded but his brother GBdor bedded many.

Holden was shorter in stature than other men of his kin; nor was he strong in body although melancholy of mood. But the fire burned in him steadily and he had great frustration of will. Of all Men of the Newth Yum he knew most of the counsels of the Lunts.

*coughs* Well, not truly spoonerisms but it's so hard to shake REB's influence.

Can't let those other books get away from this:

Parry Hotter

Bludmuds

Lord Moldyvort

But you know, Tay Ar Ar Jokin' alliterated a lot.

Misty Mountains
Bilbo Baggins (as has been pointed out)

Nor a Needy Pee Sequin or is that Seedy Pea Sequin?

Really, it is a sorry limitation upon the swapped sounds to insist upon such situational linquistics as requiring a transposition of sounds only available in the immediate context. Let us thip our dipsongs, I say, mop subliminal hairs. Berily, let us voldly woe bere Dr. Spoo warily rent.

It's a rad day for dilliness when wules and gefinitions wet in the say. Must we really be forced to create a Snunsense Thrark in honour of Lewis Carroll?

not the walrus,
