I was thinking Gild up your loins, gold leaf
or powder?

In the old days of Knights, the steel armor they
wore made them invulnerable so they could only be
attacked when they weren’t wearing it.
The only time they weren’t wearing any was when they
did their laundry.
Hence the saying, “Strike while they iron his socks!”

In days of old, when knights were bold,
and rubbers were not invented,
he'd tie a sock around thy cock,
thus babies were prevented.
