FEB 1, homophonous verse: deserving/commendable





Authors' Note: 

syl: jargon used in the doggerel trade; a short form of syllable

Although the adjective deserving has come euphemistically to be applied to the needy, it classically was applied only to people or things that were commendable or admirable
.
