"Quote" the Raven?

'Yo!' said the Dean.
Yo what? said Ridcully.
It's not a yo what, it's just a yo,' said the Senior
Wrangler, behind him. 'It's a general street greeting
and affirmative with convivial military ingroup and
masculine bonding-ritual overtones.'
'What? What? Like "jolly good"?' said Ridcully.
'I suppose so,' said the Senior Wrangler, reluctantly.
Ridcully was pleased. Ankh-Morpork had never
offered very good prospects for hunting. He'd never
thought it was possible to have so much fun in his own
university.
'Right,' he said. 'Let's get those heaps!'
'Yo!'
'Yo!'
'Yo!'
'Yo-yo.'
Ridcully sighed. 'Bursar?'
'Yes, Archchancellor?'
'Just try to understand, allright?'

* Old Noah was mucking the Ark out one day [see note]
when he heard a great shriek from the neighboring stall.
Said he to poor Ham, who was hugging his loins,
"Ah, the hedgehog, my boy, can't be buggered at all."

to cuddle and kiss as you lie next the wall,

which puts you at risk of a slip and a fall.

though you might catch a cold in your whatchamacall-

* The bonobo monkey --
Will someone please tell the Librarian I'm not talking about him?
He's in the last verse. -- Thank you!

and he'll do it to you if you show him your rump,
but the hedgehog can never be buggered at all.

As a friend to the children, commend me the Yak; [H. Belloc]
he's perfect to start them on when they are small,
for they cannot slip off of his very broad back,
but the hedgehog can never be buggered at all.

if your ears can stand up to his wild caterwaul.

* (Verse 17) [p.51]

You can bugger a whale if you're willing to swim
or an ORanguTANG if you hang from a limb;
or make time with a snail if you slow... to... a... crawl..., [p.315]
... but the hedgehog can never be buggered at all!
