When I was younger I was partial to number one provided they where
cousins,kissing,and she didn't tell the other relatives (#1). Which turned
out to be relatively (#5) rare. So the happiness relative(#6) to the pain
and suffering ended up being relatively (#9) low

That is if I got the numbers relatively(#5) right! If not, Nevermind. ;-)
