Piel's lager on red rum did murder no regal sleep.
A slut nixes sex in Tulsa.
Sex at noon taxes.
Naomi, sex at noon taxes, I moan.
I moan, 'live on, o evil Naomi!'
Now Ned, I am a maiden nun; Ned, I am a maiden won.
Dennis sinned.
Dennis and Edna sinned.
Dennis Krats and Edna Stark sinned.
Niagara, O roar again.
Lew, Otto has a hot towel.
Sit on a potato pan, Otis.
Norma is as selfless as I am, Ron.
Draw pupil's lip upward.
Straw? No, too stupid a fad. I put soot on warts.
Doc, note, I dissent. A fast never prevents a fatness. I diet on cod.
I, man am regal; a German am I.
Snug & raw was I ere I saw war & guns.

Name tarts? No, medieval slave, I demonstrate man!
Stiff, O dairy-man, in a myriad of fits!
Stop, Syrian, I start at rats in airy spots!
No sot nor Ottawa law at Toronto, son.
... And there's a good story that goes with the "ABLATA AT ALBA" one.
A lady who was attached to the court of Queen Elizabeth was banished on
suspicion of too great familiarity with a nobleman then high in favor.
She adopted as her device the moon covered by a cloud, and as her motto,
*** ABLATA AT ALBA ***
which, in addition to the literal "Out of sight but still white," meant
"Banished but blameless."

Another couple of golden oldies:
Name tarts? No, medieval slave! I demonstrate man.
Doc, note I dissent. A fast never prevents a fatness. I diet on cod.
And a contribution from my friend Martin Schwartz, a little incantation in
palindromes:
Gnostic Illicit Song

O Devil! Live, do!
Revel ever,
