I figured part of the idea was that sometimes, the line fits in place with no further changes.
Lars Porsena of Clusium,
By the Nine Gods he swore
That the great house of Tarquin
Should suffer wrong no more.
And then began the murders â
For he named a trysting day,
And bade his messengers ride forth,
East and west and south and north,
To summon his array.

Then sometimes you can put in the one line and leave the rest the same, yet now terribly different.

There was a telephone
And a red balloon
And a picture of the cow jumping over the moon.

â David Brin, Earth
A hundred and fifty years before, when the parochial disagreements between Earth and Mars had been on the verge of war, the Belt had been a far horizon of tremendous mineral wealth beyond viable economic reach, and the outer planets had been beyond even the most unrealistic corporate dream. Then Solomon Epstein had built his little modified fusion drive, popped it on the back of his three-man yacht, and turned it on. And then the murders began.

Mrs. Rachel Lynde lived just where the Avonlea main road dipped down into a little hollow, fringed with alders and ladiesâ eardrops and traversed by a brook that had its source away back in the woods of the old Cuthbert place; it was reputed to be an intricate, headlong brook in its earlier course through those woods, with dark secrets of pool and cascade; but by the time it reached Lyndeâs Hollow it was a quiet, well-conducted little stream, for not even a brook could run past Mrs. Rachel Lyndeâs door without due regard for decency and decorum; it probably was conscious that Mrs. Rachel was sitting at her window, keeping a sharp eye on everything that passed, from brooks and children up, and that if she noticed anything odd or out of place she would never rest until she had ferreted out the whys and wherefores thereof. And then the murders began.
